Identity Theft Insurance Protection
Protect Your Credit and Your Good Name
You think you are being careful and that identity theft cannot happen to you, until it does. This year, the Federal Trade Commission reports that 25% of the cases they receive are specific to identity theft, and these are up 490% over 2023. Data breaches account for many identity theft cases and now, Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven scams are also reported to be on the rise. All it takes is your name, social security number, and date of birth for a cyber criminal to obtain a bank loan, a credit card, and even an insurance policy using your good name and clean credit report. Having your identity stolen is truly stressful, but your journey toward restoring your credit and returning your life to normalcy can also be time-consuming, difficult, and expensive.
