The NLCRPD is investigating a report of identity theft in connection with the filing of unemployment compensation claim utilizing the identifiers of the reporting party. The caller reported the event to the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry as well as the Human Resources Department of her employer. The Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry also advised the reporting party to contact their local police services provider for the filing of a report. NLCRPD provided the caller with the requisite warnings for monitoring of personal accounts, credit cards, and other billings for unauthorized transactions. The caller was also provided with the incident reporting number to facilitate any resultant communications concerning this incident. The NLCRPD continues to file reports from victims concerning the UC fraud reporting that was prevalent in recent weeks. While a noticeable decrease in the reporting of UC fraud and fraud related activities has been noted the problem still persists as there has been on average one report filed every day for the past two-week reporting period. Anyone who is a resident of Clay Township, Penn Township, Warwick Township, or the Borough of East Petersburg who has experienced a fraud or a potential unreported fraud is encouraged to report the crime to the NLCRPD
