Identity Theft Flyer Instructions
You will create a flyer in Microsoft Word that lists a minimum of 5 things you would need to do if your identity
was stolen. For example, contact your bank, credit card companies, etc. Do not just simply copy and paste
from the Internet. Go to several different websites to find different tips from different sources. You may use
any design or template that you would like. You must include at least two pictures that match the topic.
Make sure that your flyer is organized, creative, and attractive. You should not have any grammatical errors,
so please spell check when you are finished. Also, please be sure to give any credit to resources that you have
used. A rubric is provided to use as a guideline for this activity. Save your flyer as Identitytheft_YourName in
your folder. Then, submit your flyer in Google Classroom under the Assignment submission link.
