Why Get Identity Theft Protection?
Identity theft protection is a good idea because roughly 15 million people in the US have their identity or other important personal and financial information stolen every year.
If a thief steals your personal information, it can have a serious negative effect on your credit. Additionally, if the wrong people get your personal information they can use it to create false medical records, create fraudulent debt and more.
Many people struggle for years to repair the damage done by one instance of identity theft. It’s possible to protect yourself and prevent identity theft. Freeway Insurance offers an identity theft protection plan that will safeguard you and your family from those who would steal your personal information.
Identity Theft Protection Helps You Fight Back When the Unexpected Happens
When someone uses your personal information, especially your social security number, without your permission, it’s called identity theft. Your personal information may be used to apply for credit, get medical services, purchase goods and services, get a hotel room – even rent a home or a car.
Sadly, many people are not even aware that any of this is going on until months – and even years – have passed.
With Freeway’s ID protection plan, you’ll be able to learn if your identity is compromised early on – and receive help taking the necessary next steps to make sure you can recover quickly.
