Although I  kept hearing about identity theft, it I never really gave it much thought. With all the hard work it takes to maintain good credit you'd think I'd be more concerned with protecting it from thieves. It wasn't until a close friend of mind had her identity stolen that I saw how insidious a thing identity theft can be. Her whole world had turned upside down. It took over a year of nothing but hassle, after hassle, after hassle to get her life back together. Can you imagine the stress of seeing everything you own suddenly put at risk? According to the research most people never catch it until it's too late. You could be a victim already and not even know it. It was about this time that I heard my first advertisement for LifeLock, the identity protection company. What got my attention was that the ceo of the company came on the radio ad and actually gave out his social security number on the air. I think you'd agree that's either supreme confidence or complete lunacy. I was intrigued. I decided I needed to find out which. I visited the company website and lo and behold, Todd Davis, the ceo, had his social security number big and bold right there on the website for anyone to see. He obviously believes in what he offers. He believes in it so much he even stands behind his protection with a Million Dollar Service Guarantee. According to the website if your Identity is stolen while you are a member of LifeLock, LifeLock is going to do whatever it takes to recover your good name. If you need lawyers, they are going to hire the best they can find. If you need investigators, accountants, case managers, whatever, they're yours. If you lose money as a result of the theft, they guarantee to give it back to you. LifeLock guarantees do whatever it takes to help you recover your good name and guarantees to spend up to $1,000,000 to do it. When I found out it was only $10.00/month I was sold. Once I enrolled I immediately felt peace of mind. LifeLock sent me an email stating that fraud alerts have been requested on my behalf. I didn't even know what a fraud alert was. It turns out they're pretty cool. Once they're established with the major credit bureaus, creditors are required to verify your identity before opening any new lines of credit, issuing new cards or increasing your credit limit. I got another email from LifeLock stating that they had ordered my credit reports from the major credit bureaus and had them sent directly to me. Any time anyone tries to do anything that affects my credit I get a phone call asking me to verify the transaction. Believe me, that gives you peace of mind. Between my wife and I, we would sometimes spend hours shredding personal documents. With LifeLock, those days are over. If you still haven't taken the steps necessary to secure your identity do yourself a favor and try LifeLock. You won't be disappointed. If you're like me protecting your credit is definitely worth the 30 cents/day LifeLock charges. Ptotect yourself and your family with LifeLock identity protection today.
