Identity Theft Supplement (ITS)



INTRO1

Thank you for your interest in participating in our study. RTI International is working with the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) on a survey about experiences with identity theft. We are interested in meeting with people who can help us review and improve a survey instrument that is designed to measure the different types of identity theft. We are looking for people who are willing to participate in private, one-on-one interviews using videoconferencing technology to test some new questions we have developed for this survey. Our goal is to learn whether the questions are understood and can be answered by most people. This information will be used to finalize survey questions for a national study taking place in 2021.

If you meet the selection criteria, you will be emailed by a researcher from RTI to see if you want to set up an appointment for a 30-minute interview. You would be one of about 30 participants who will help test this survey. People who complete the interview will be given a $20 Amazon.com gift card to compensate for the costs associated with data and internet usage.

First, we need to ask a few questions to determine your eligibility and your ability to participate in the interview:
