Federal Judge Rules: LifeLock’s Fraud Alert Service ~ Illegal

“…LifeLock has been breaking California law for years by placing fraud alerts on its customer’s credit profiles.” from THREAT LEVEL at Wired.com

And charging you for it.  Folks, we can do that for FREE!  See the 2003 Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act, or FACTA, rules and other legislation.

Read the full story at the link above - THEY ALL TALK ABOUT FRAUD RELATED IDENTITY THEFT ~~~ WHY AREN’T THEY TALKING ABOUT ALL AREAS OF IDENTITY THEFT? Like the ones that can land you in jail, in handcuffs in front of your kids, slammed to the ground when you ARE innocent, or the one that CAN kill you.

Kroll, the world’s leading risk consulting company, with more than 30-years experience, says it best on their website.  They also appoached the leading nationwide network of lawfirms [what if IDentity Theft happens against you, by someone in ANOTHER state] and partnered with Pre-Paid Legal Services to offer the better answer.  Get the answers in short 4-minute videos at each link on Talk Today

As mentioned in the article these companies that popped up in the last 5 years to offer a fraud alert placement service will need to stop doing that.  WHY?  Better yet, WHY NOT? - YOU can place the alert yourself - FOR FREE.

The IDENTITY THEFT SHIELD[tm] is the better answer and their licensed investigaters place the alert, on your behalf, ONLY when necessary, and they don’t charge you extra.
