(720 ILCS 5/16-30)
    Sec. 16-30. Identity theft; aggravated identity theft.
    (a) A person commits identity theft when he or she knowingly:
        (1) uses any personal identifying information or personal identification document of
    
another person to fraudulently obtain credit, money, goods, services, or other property;
        (2) uses any personal identifying information or personal identification document of
    
another with intent to commit any felony not set forth in paragraph (1) of this subsection (a);
        (3) obtains, records, possesses, sells, transfers, purchases, or manufactures any
    
personal identifying information or personal identification document of another with intent to commit any felony;
        (4) uses, obtains, records, possesses, sells, transfers, purchases, or manufactures any
    
personal identifying information or personal identification document of another knowing that such personal identifying information or personal identification documents were stolen or produced without lawful authority;
        (5) uses, transfers, or possesses document-making implements to produce false
    
identification or false documents with knowledge that they will be used by the person or another to commit any felony;
        (6) uses any personal identifying information or personal identification document of
    
another to portray himself or herself as that person, or otherwise, for the purpose of gaining access to any personal identifying information or personal identification document of that person, without the prior express permission of that person;
        (7) uses any personal identifying information or personal identification document of
    
another for the purpose of gaining access to any record of the actions taken, communications made or received, or other activities or transactions of that person, without the prior express permission of that person;
        (7.5) uses, possesses, or transfers a radio frequency identification device capable of
    
obtaining or processing personal identifying information from a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag or transponder with knowledge that the device will be used by the person or another to commit a felony violation of State law or any violation of this Article; or
        (8) in the course of applying for a building permit with a unit of local government,
    
provides the license number of a roofing or fire sprinkler contractor whom he or she does not intend to have perform the work on the roofing or fire sprinkler portion of the project; it is an affirmative defense to prosecution under this paragraph (8) that the building permit applicant promptly informed the unit of local government that issued the building permit of any change in the roofing or fire sprinkler contractor.
    (b) Aggravated identity theft. A person commits aggravated identity theft when he or she commits identity theft as set forth in subsection (a) of this Section:
        (1) against a person 60 years of age or older or a person with a disability; or
        (2) in furtherance of the activities of an organized gang.
    A defense to aggravated identity theft does not exist merely because the accused reasonably believed the victim to be a person less than 60 years of age. For the purposes of this subsection, "organized gang" has the meaning ascribed in Section 10 of the Illinois Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus Prevention Act.
    (c) Knowledge shall be determined by an evaluation of all circumstances surrounding the use of the other person's identifying information or document.
    (d) When a charge of identity theft or aggravated identity theft of credit, money, goods, services, or other property exceeding a specified value is brought, the value of the credit, money, goods, services, or other property is an element of the offense to be resolved by the trier of fact as either exceeding or not exceeding the specified value.
