Postal inspectors (Louis Gossett, Jr. and Jonathan Silverman) investigate a con man (Michael Madsen) who uses the identities of others to falsify credit card purchases. Stealing credit card offers from mail boxes, he obtains cards in others' names, makes many purchases until the card is maxed out, but is always careful to pay minimum balances. According to the story, it is possible for individuals such as this to run many credit cards at a time without being caught. Written by John Sacksteder <jsackste@bellsouth.net>
Two US postal inspectors (Gossett & Silverman) uncover an identity theft scheme with a particularly dangerous perp Madsen). In addition to being an okay made-for-tv whodunnit, this film gives insights into how identity theft, a crime on the rise which can hit anyone anywhere anytime, and how to prevent it. Worth a look.
