The Red Flag Program Clarification Act of 2010 amended the original Red Flags rule, which required certain financial institutions and creditors to develop and implement a written identity theft prevention program. The Clarification Act narrowed the definition of creditor to include only those who regularly and in the ordinary course of business advance funds to or on behalf of a person, based on an obligation of the person to repay the funds or repayable from specific property pledged by or on behalf of the person12. This excludes creditors who advance funds for expenses incidental to a service provided by the creditor to that person3. References:
