Help! I’m Having An Identity Crisis

“Stupid is as Stupid does.” So said Forrest Gump and now I understand that quote.

A while back, my vehicle was vandalized. Not much really, a broken window that the insurance company took care of (they raised the premium after the claim). What was so stupid was that I had left my purse in the car while I ran into the drycleaners. The doors were locked and I’d only be a minute. Well, yeah you guessed it. Some delinquient teenager, broke the window, took the purse and ran. I wasn’t a happy camper, but who could I blame? I left it there. I ran a list of who I needed to contact through my mind, my employer (paycheck was in there), credit card companies, bank, social security, the state (I’d need a new driver license) the list got longer and longer.  In the end, the purse, minus the cash and credit cards was found a few days later. A neighbor called, his son had found the purse in a storm sewer near his house. (What the kid was doing in the storm sewer I don’t know). But thank goodness for that kid!  Fast forward 6 months. I’m thinking of buying a new car. So, I check my FICO score, which has gone down a head spinning 200 points. Why would that be? I check my credit report and BAM! I find the reason. Little Johnny Cool, who broke the window, and stole the purse, took the ID and credit information and proceeded to have fun with my credit information! I’m finally out from under that nightmare. And I hope never to have it happen again. I purchased Identity protection from LifeLock.com and their $1 Million dollar guarantee tells me it won’t!

If I had purchased Life Lock protection, before this nightmare, I would only have had one phone call to make. With their WalletLock protection, that comes free with every LifeLock membership, if your wallet is ever stolen or missing,  a WalletLock specialist will help you contact each credit card, bank or document issuing company, cancel your affected accounts and complete the paperwork and steps necessary to replace your lost documents, including your credit/debit cards, driver’s license, social security card, insurance cards, checkbook - even travelers checks - at no additional cost. (This doesn’t include pictures or cash). At less than $10 a month it’s  a small price to pay for total identity protection !

You and your family should NOT be without this program. Build it into your budget under insurance. To get the best deal enter RD9 in the promotion code box or give the code to the operator when you call. You’ll even get 30 days FREE!! That’s right, FREE! You’ll be glad you did ! I know I am!
