Site Provides Customers Identity Theft Alerts, Insurance, and Restoration
April 2, 2008 – Bellevue, WA – freeIDENTITYprotect.com is now offering customers even more to protect against identity theft. The upgrade adds insurance, theft alerts and identity theft restoration to the already free services of freeIDENTITYprotect.com. The existing free services are still free.
“According to the Federal Trade Commission ¹, identity theft is on the rise – and people are rightly looking to protect themselves. We created an upgrade to www.freeidentityprotect.com to provide our customers the highest level of protection available,” said Jim Adler, CEO Demoxi, Inc., the parent company of www.freeidentityprotect.com. “For some customers freeIDENTITYprotect will take care of all their needs but for those customers who are at risk of identity theft or just want extra protection, this upgrade will provide that within the same easy to use site.”
The premium upgrade monitors the Internet black market for compromised personal information, and alerts the consumer if their personal information such as credit card and social security numbers are found. This will enable consumers to proactively take action and help prevent an identity thief from using their good credit. It also provides a $1 million service guarantee, $25,000 of identity theft insurance, and access to identity theft specialists to help consumers restore their good credit and name should an identity theft occur.
This service builds on www.freeidentityprotect.com, a free service which provides access to the leading protection services from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, the Direct Marketing Association, and the National Credit Reporting Agencies. The service includes access to free credit reports from all three credit bureaus, credit bureau fraud alerts, credit card offer reduction, National Do-Not-Call List access and a junk email reduction service. Consumers are provided with step-by-step instructions, instructional videos, and alerts for obtaining their next free credit report and for re-registering for a fraud alert.
“Just as with freeIDENTITYprotect, we looked for the best available services to provide to our customers so they can easily get all the identity protection they need in one comprehensive site. The Premium upgrade adds the best insurance, fraud detection and credit restoration options available,” said Craig Muller, Vice President Identity Services for Demoxi, Inc. and freeIDENTITYprotect.
