Identity Theft Red Flags and Address Discrepancies
On October 16, 2007, an Interagency Final Rule was passed implementing Sections
114 and 315 of the FACT Act of 2003, regarding Identity Theft Red Flags and Address
Discrepancies Regulations. The final rule sets forth guidelines for the creation
and maintenance of an Identity Theft Prevention Program (Program) as required by
section 114 of the FACT Act. The rule also provides guidelines for processing change-of-address
requests for debit and credit card issuers. Collectively, these guidelines are referred
to as the "Red Flag Regulations." Additionally, the rule sets out requirements related
to address discrepancies in consumer reports. The mandatory compliance date for
these rules and guidelines is November 1, 2008. This narrated PowerPoint is
intended to be a resource to federally insured credit unions in implementing the
regulatory requirements.
