A recent survey reveals that 30 percent of travelers have experienced identity theft while traveling or know someone who has. While respondents indicated they felt most vulnerable to identity theft in restaurants and Internet cafés, actual incidents occurred most frequently in hotels (24 percent), restaurants (18 percent) and airports (12 percent).

With the summer travel season in full swing, organizations can protect themselves and their customers by utilizing innovative fraud detection tools designed to reduce potential losses without hindering sales.
