NEW YORK (Reuters) - New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer on Monday said he is seeking stronger state laws against identity theft and computer hacking.
Spitzer's office, together with several consumer advocate groups and crime victim organizations, are asking legislators to give consumers better control over personal information, enhance the state's ability to prosecute crimes that lead to identity theft, and boost penalties.
Spitzer, known for his sweeping probes of Wall Street research, the mutual fund and insurance industries, said he submitted a package of bills to the state legislature.
