The Best Identity Theft Protection you can buy is self investment. The 3-major reporting agencies offer you a free annual credit report if you have encountered identity theft issues on your credit reports and implemented something where they have to contact you if credit is applied for using your information. The best part about it is that its free and will only cost you time and effort. The best protection you have is yourself and your own attention to your business.
P.S. The best part is it does not affect your credit rating…
You should do a credit check annually to ensure you know where you stand and if you find something thats not yours or you don’t know what it is you can dispute it for free.
The ‘Dude’ comment below about checking your credit with the big three every year is a very important thing to do…BUT…the problem with doing ONLY that is that you will find out too late that your identity has been stolen. Checking your credit reports can not and should not ever replace having a subscription to a good identity theft protection plan like TrustedID or Lifelock. If you don’t believe me, then just ask those that have had their identities stolen and they will all tell you that checking your credit report isn’t enough.
