ID Theft Prevention: 'I lost my purse... now what?'

"When my purse wasn't returned, suddenly my world was a different place."

I hope you never have to say that. Ms. Gupta discovered after leaving her purse in a movie theater that in her "new world," she had "no tangible evidence to prove who [she really was. She] lost all my key identifiers — driver's license, AAA, insurance, credit and debit cards, health insurance, library card, frequent flyer mile and quite a few individual store credit cards."

But worse — all those key identifies she lost could easily be used by someone else to "prove" they were Ms. Gupta.

Read her story here.

There are two very time-consuming steps involved if you lose your identifiers as Ms. Gupta did: Taking inventory — what did you lose? — and taking action.

Ms. Gupta did not have an identity theft protection program in place.

But you can, with the Identity Theft Shield from Kroll and Pre-Paid Legal Services. The Identity Theft Shield plan monitors your identifiers and notifies you of any misuse... but more importantly, the Identity Theft Shield immediately begins restoring and repairing any damage done by identity thieves who use your identity.

This extends not just to credit cards, but to social security number misuse, driver's license theft, health insurance information theft, and criminal/character identity theft.

For more information on, or to enroll in, the Identity Theft Shield from Kroll and Pre-Paid Legal Services, visit our website or call me at 404-358-1170.
