True, false, or not given: there are three main kinds of identity theft?

**Please, reason before looking on the answer or my arguments so you don't become biased.**I'm studying for a test and there is this passage (content taken from British Council study material):> Identity crime is a generic term used to describe offences in which> someone uses a fabricated or fictitious identity, a manipulated> identity (the alteration of one’s own identity) or a stolen identity to> commit a crime. The third of these, identity theft, knows no> geographical boundaries and is on the increase as more people conduct> business and social interactions over the internet.There is this statement: > There are three main kinds of identity theftthat should be classified as either, **true**, **false** or **not given**.The correct answer as per the answer sheet is> False although I think it is> Not given since it enumerates 3 identity crimes but never say whether there are more or not. Note that it enumerates 3 identity **crimes**, not 3 identity **thefts**.**Real question**: Is the answer sheet correct?
