Profiteers bank on government intervention

Banks are having a tough time of it. Not only can they not offer crippling mortgages to people with little or no chance of repaying their debt, but now they are also having to stop offering credit to identity thieves.

A parliamentary group on identity fraud reported that identity thieves are targeting customers' online accounts as bank credit dries up.    

Downtime has every confidence government will see the fraudsters through these tricky times. As for the identity thieves; well, they are clearly in the wrong business.
