No identity is 100% secure. Todd Davis is no exception he is just like anyone else. If the loan or credit card does not go through a credit office then there is no way to stop it.

Yeah it’s true that you can’t really 100% protect yourself from Identity theft. I’m pretty sure that there is no real definition of what identity theft really is. I mean is someone stealing your credit card identity theft? Because I would consider that to be just theft at that point. I mean sure I guess they are pretending to be you when they use it but no one really ask for ID when someone uses a check card or credit card anymore. Especially when they are online it is very difficult to identify the true identity of someone online.

LifeLock says themselves that no one can completely prevent identity theft. It requires more than just LifeLock doing their jobs right. So I don’t think that this situation proves anything other that you are never truly 100% safe even with LifeLock. It’s better to have some protection than none at all. It’s kind of like a bullet proof vest. Sure the vest is bullet proof but what if they shoot you in the face. just a thought.

Everyone is trying to take a shot at LifeLock it seems. I don’t think that LifeLock really deserves it. I think that take care of their customers I know they have always taken care of me.

I think it was funny they way they caught him. When LifeLock found out that the guy had taken money out in Todd Davis’s name they sent out a camera crew to go out and ask him why he did it. I thought that was really funny.

Yeah all that talk is such BS. Everyone just wants a reason to hate LifeLock.

He didn’t get hacked. People make it sound like someone somehow like hijacked all his bank accounts without him knowing. It was some guy out of texas and it was like $500 bucks which is the reason it worked in the first place. The business giving out the loan didn’t check his identity.

The real question is why would someone who knows that the person is monitoring their credit, try and steal money from them. I mean you are going to get caught. With someone who is as high profile as Todd Davis you got to know that you are going to get caught. We are not talking a little slap on the wrist. I’m talking years in jail to test the claims made on TV. Seems like a steep price to pay.

I heard about this! Everyone was saying that he was hacked. If you actually read what happened it was such a small amount of money that it flew under the radar. LifeLock isn’t perfect, but it will catch most forms of identity theft.

I read that he really wasn’t hacked. From what I read the guy took out a load for $500 which doesn’t require the lender to check with the credit bureaus. So really it wasn’t LifeLock who was a fault here. It’s not like LifeLock failed or anything.
