Lifelock.com advertising is all over the place.  I am sure you’ve seen the commercials on TV about the founder ‘giving’ out his own social security number for everyone to see.  Well, more and more people are victims of identity theft these days, lifelock has a decent idea.

For a company to take your name and guarantee it up to $1 million, I think that’s pretty risky.  The cost to you is only $10 per month and it will most likely come in handy, especially if you shop online a lot.

LifeLock.com can help both sides, too.  Let’s say that someone has stolen a credit card and they come to your website to make a purchase (it’s happened to me), if the person has lifelock it really saves you a ton of headaches and possible legal issues.

With your membership you will see less junk mail and a reduction in credit card offers. Tell me that isn’t worth the $10/month in itself.  A 5-star consumers review company, it looks like a company you can trust.  It is important to keep an eye on everything that is happening with your name.

You don’t want to be giving it out on every website that comes along.  LifeLock.com could also help you keep your credit report straight.  Speaking from experience, my dad’s name is similar to mine, when you get a messed up credit report you are in for a long battle to get it cleaned up.

Use lifelock.com if you are online, if you own a business or even if you lose your wallet all the time.  It’s a company that works hard for you and I think it shows.
