Bernanke Had ID Stolen
Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke was one of the victims of a nationwide identity-fraud ring that stole $2.1 million from consumers and businesses. What do you think?

"Thank heavens his identity didn't fall into the hands of a really dull villain."
Jason Sutton,
Online Business Owner
"Wait, so that wasn't the real Ben Bernanke who bought $4,600 worth of high-end car stereo equipment and decals from my online store?"
Ward Soliday,
Systems Analyst
"At the same time, the economy is heading out of a recession. Those criminals must know how to balance a budget."
