Why choose LifeLock?

idtheft There are plenty of identity theft prevention services out there vying for your hard earned money. Some entice you with offers of free credit reports to lock you into a contracted monthly payment or perform services that you can easily do yourself. It’s no secret that we talk about LifeLock on this blog quite often. We even go so far as to offer a promotion code that gives you 30 days of LifeLock for free and 10% off the cost of an annual membership.

The reason we do this is because we truly believe that LifeLock offers the best service when it comes to helping prevent identity theft. I have never personally been a victim of identity theft. However, I see all of the news stories and statistics that come out and know that it’s only a matter of time. With the way we casually handle our identities online or announce our social security numbers at hospitals or doctor’s offices, there’s a large chance someone will attempt to become you — to your financial detriment.

I’ve had LifeLock for about six months now. Aside from the services that LifeLock offers like eRecon (which scouts for your information on criminal databases), TrueAddress (which prevents the common tactic of identity thieves changing your address to reroute credit card and bank statements to them) and WalletLock (which assists in canceling your credit cards and licenses in the event of your wallet or purse being stolen), the largest service LifeLock offers me is piece of mind. I know I have the best available proactive service working for me and that alone is easily worth the cost of a lunch every month.
