LITITZ BOROUGH - The LBPD has received multiple reports of identify theft through the filing of false unemployment compensation (UC) claims. In each instance, someone filed for UC benefits using the personal information of the reporting person, without their knowledge or consent. Victims are encouraged to report this fraud to their employer and the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry. A copy of a police report is often required to initiate a UC fraud claim.
