Destiny Survival

            If everything collapses due to electromagnetic pulse or something else, your identity and mine won’t matter much.  We’ll each be struggling for the best way to stay alive.  However, until that time, we live in an electronically and computer oriented world that requires attention to your personal security any time you do something as simple as purchase groceries with a debit card.  For that reason, you now have the opportunity on this page to take advantage of the services of TrustedID.

            A thief could attempt to steal your jewelry or other valuables at home, which is why you may own a handgun or other means of self defense.  However, what do you do to protect yourself from identity theft?  I heard about a woman who hid out for several years under an assumed identity, and she used a Social Security number she supposedly made up.  Who’s was it?  Apparently nobody came after her for fraud.  You might not be so lucky.

A thief can wreak havoc in your life with nothing more than your Social Security number, credit card number, name, and address.  Often with one of these, he can get the information he doesn’t yet have.  Your bank account could be drained and fraud committed in your name.  Of course, this costs you financially, and it can ruin your credit rating.

A thief can even jeopardize your medical care fraudulently.  This is one concern I personally have about the current push to put more of our medical information online.  It may streamline things for hackers and thieves as well as those who are meant to benefit from it.

Under normal circumstances you may not discover the damage that has been done to you until it’s too late.  According to TrustedID, more than 15 million people become victims of identity theft every year.  In the U.S. an identity is stolen every two seconds.  It’s one of the fastest growing crimes in the country.

            You’ve probably seen news programs on TV about the ways identity is stolen.  They include:

*   Mailbox Raiding & Dumpster Diving–Thieves get personal information from discarded mail and statements.

*   Phishing–Thieves send emails pretending to be from a business you trust to get your personal information.

*   Corporate Data Breach–Businesses you trust can be compromised by hackers or employee errors.  (How many times have we heard of this one lately?)

TrustedID provides comprehensive proactive protection.  They do more than simply monitor your credit and tell you when something bad has happened after the fact.  They continue to add innovative services to keep ahead of identity thieves.

            TrustedID protects you with:
