How does the IDENTITY GUARD® service monitor my credit reports?
With the rise in identity theft and credit card fraud, you may not know that someone has assumed your identity or opened new accounts until they default on loans, or collection agencies start calling you. With the IDENTITY GUARD® credit monitoring service, you will be notified of changes so you can act quickly if you suspect fraud.The IDENTITY GUARD® service uniquely monitors your credit report and both the “back alleys” and “black markets” of the Internet and alerts you to specific activities involving the information that’s reported about you. This combination of monitoring and alerts is your best early warning that can disrupt identity thieves before they get started and make it almost impossible for them to turn you into a victim.
