To increase the penalties for identity theft, and to authorize the seizure and forfeiture of assets from an individual when a court has found that there is probable cause to believe that the assets are proceeds from serious identity theft violations or were used to perpetrate the crime. Among other penalties the bill would increase, it would raise the maximum penalty for third and subsequent violations of the most serious types of identity theft to 15 years in prison and a $75,000 fine.
