Comparison of ID theft protection programs

Just being careful isn't enough to prevent or detect identity theft, the fastest growing crime in the U.S. with over 9 million victims each year. If you are serious about preventing identity theft, sign up for an identity theft prevention service. Not only will they set fraud alerts on your credit files so that any business opening an account in your name must contact you to confirm your identity, but they'll help you cut down on junk mail and give you copies of all three of your credit reports, too.

If you don't want to be contacted every time you open a new credit account or also want to keep close tabs on your credit report and score, then sign up for an identity theft detection service to ensure you catch any theft before it hurts you. Or get Identity Guard Total Protection, which provides both prevention and detection services.
