Identity theft is one
of the fastest growing crimes in the US today.
Identity thieves have developed a number of ways
to get your information - from the theft of your
purse to more elaborate internet-based scams. Once
they have your social security number, thieves can
establish credit in your name & incur hundreds or
even thousands of dollars in credit charges or
fraudulent loans. You may be unaware of these
charges until a collector seeks payment for the
bill you knew nothing about. Or you could be
denied a loan due to your credit report showing
defaults that were not yours.
You may not be able to
guard against all ways identity thieves can steal
your identity, but you can arm yourself with
protection that gives you the resources you need
to restore your good name and financial history in
the event of identity theft. Adding identity
theft to your homeowners policy is easy &
relatively inexpensive. Contact your insurance
agent today for details.
