Identity Theft is on the rise and in wake of issues with the popular Lifelock and other consumer protection products, Equifax (NYSE: EFX) has come to the rescue with a new product called ID Patrol. ID Patrol combines Internet scanning tools, 24/7 identity theft resolution, credit file lock, and credit monitoring in one comprehensive product.
"The most exciting feature is Internet Scanning," says Mark Hughes, CEO of Buzzmarketing. "Unbeknownst to most of us, our social security, credit card numbers and other personal information are being sold online and ID Patrol protects us."
ID Patrol is Equifax's most comprehensive identity protection product. For about 50 cents a day, Equifax is providing consumers with a full-featured identity protection product to help them prevent, detect, and resolve identity theft.
Only Equifax ID Patrol offers protection against identity theft by providing subscribers the ability to:
- Lock and unlock their Equifax credit file (certain exceptions apply);
- Receive alerts if their Social Security number (if elected) or up to ten major credit/debit card numbers they provide are found on suspected Internet trading sites;
- Access a trained ID Theft Resolution Specialist 24 hours a day, seven days a week; and
- Receive credit monitoring and alerts within 24 hours to key changes in their credit files from the three nationwide bureaus.
"To turn this down for 50 cents a day is crazy," says Hughes.
