Ever had your identity stolen?
I certainly hope you haven’t…it’s a real pain to get that stuff undone. Often, it doesnt even get undone…you have to wait seven to ten years for it to go off your credit, and even in the best-case instances there are serious repercussions for victims of identity theft (sadly, most identity thieves get away with it). Even if you’re lucky enough for identity theft to not ruin your life, it makes everything harder…from getting a gas credit card to buying a house or a car (I know that houses and cars aren’t on most peoples’ lists of “to-do’s” these days, but it’s important to understand how bad it can be).
On a side (and way more cheerful) note, welcome back everybody! I see that more of you are out there reading and might be wondering where I disappeared to for the last couple of weeks. There’s soooo much to do with school starting for the kids (and of course the start of football!!! been waitin’ since the refs robbed the second NFC West team in the last four years in February! I think the refs’ uniforms should be changed to black-and-yellow). My apologies on not gettin items up like I had been, but everything is [mostly] back to normal and it’ll be back to a [week]daily dealio.
So this particular offer works like this: you get a 30-day FREE TRIAL to this Identity Protection System (this includes ID Alerts if changes to your credit report could indicate fraud or suspicious activity and protection if your credit or debit cards get lost, stolen, or misused, up to a $1,000,000 product guarantee). You also get a free Credit Report from Experian so you can check for errors (FYI, you’re entitled to a free copy of your credit report every twelve (12) months from all three credit bureaus; there’s no affiliation between this service and the three free credit reports, which you can get from AnnualCreditReport.com).
