If you become a victim of identity theft, the Prince George’s County Office of Human Resources Management and the Police Department Financial Crimes Unit recommend taking the following steps:
- NOTIFY your Agency Human Resources Liaison of the fraud if they are not already aware.
- MAKE A REPORT
- DLLR: Submit a report with Maryland Department of Labor to report the fraud. Download the form online here or call the Claimant Benefit Fraud hotline at 1-800-492-6804.

Once the form is completed, please e-mail it to ui.fraud@maryland.gov. Please note that is it not recommended that you call DLLR for assistance, as they typically do not have enough staff to handle the volume of calls, so filing your report online is the best approach.
- Police Report: Call the non-emergency number for your local police station, as well as to the police station where the fraud took place to file a report. The non-emergency number for the Prince George’s County Police Department is 301-352-1200. The most effective way to file a report is to request that an officer come to your home to take your report when you call the non-emergency phone number. Please be sure to have the following information available when you file your report:
- A copy of your FTC Identity Theft Report
- A government-issued photo ID
- Proof of your address, such as a mortgage statement or utility bill
- Any proof you have of the theft.
