SUPERSTAR BARRY BONDS MAY BE IN A LEAGUE OF HIS OWN IN TERMS OF BASEBALL, BUT WHEN IT CAME TO IDENTITY THEFT, THE HOME RUN HITTER PROVED HE WAS JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, A VICTIM.
BEFORE HE BECAME THE HOME RUN KING AND BEFORE HE WAS INDICTED ONCHARGES HAVING TO DO WITH STEROIDS, BARRY BONDS HAD HIS IDENTITY STOLEN. IN 2005 A MAN NAMED JASON KEYS WAS WORKING FOR A COMPANY THAT STORES AND DESTROYS PERSONAL RECORDS. KEYS FOUND BONDS SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER AND CHA-CHING, USED THAT AND THE BASEBALL PLAYER’S DATE OF BIRTH TO APPLY FOR A CREDIT CARD.
TODD DAVIS AN EXPERT ON IDENTITY THEFT AND CEO OF LIFELOCK SAYS IT'S NOT SURPRISING TO HAVE SOMEONE’S IDENTITY STOLEN IN THAT WAY
u may have a company that that has someone who's supposed to be shredding documents , it makes more sense for them to take the info and leave the job celebs have to take hi level of precautions
BUT IT WAS OVER BEFORE IT STARTED FOR KEYS WHEN HE APPLIED ONLINE FOR A CREDIT CARD AND SAID HE WAS MAKING $350,000 A YEAR. AS MOST BASEFALL FANS KNOW, THE SAN FRANCISCO SLUGGER WAS MAKING A LITTLE MORE THAN THAT, ABOUT 18 MILLION MORE. THE BANK BECAME SUSPICIOUS AND WHEN IT WAS TIME FOR THE MASTER CARD TO BE DELIVERED TO KEYS, A POSTAL INSPECTOR DRESSED UP AS A MAIL CARRIER AND BROUGHT IT TO HIS HOME. WHEN KEYS SIGNED FOR THE CARD AS BARRY BONDS, HE WAS ARRESTED. GAME OVER.
KEYS PLEADED GUILTY TO ONE COUNT OF IDENTITTY DECEPTION, AND IN A PLEA DEAL AGREED TO BY BONDS HIMSELF, WAS GIVEN NO JAIL TIME. TO PROTECT YOUR IDENTITY, CHECK OUT LIFELOCK, THE INDUSTRY LEADER IN PROACTIVE IDENTITY THEFT PROTECTION, FOR CELEBTV.COM, I’M KELLI ZINK.
