if you are going to pay for identity protection you are wasting your money unless you have a pro ready to work for you in your time of need.
The TV commercial says they’ll pay you up to $1 million for any losses. But the company doesn’t really do that. So the TV commercial is fraud.
How dumb do you have to be to sign up with them? I mean, that Todd Davis guy is giving out HIS OWN Social Security number on the radio! How careful do you think he’s gonna be with yours?
LL has been great for me. Before closing on a refi last month, LL called and made sure it was me. That’s all I need to know.
I think that identify theft is over-hyped. Sure, it happens, but it is not the epidemic that the media and these companies claim.
This is interesting..... I keep thinking that I’ll sign up because Rush promotes it on his website, but now I’m not so sure.....
“Maybe this is all about failure to read the fine print but then again it all depends on what the company really claims it can do.”
Yup, we’ll have to wait and see. In the end, however, it will be the lawyers who win $$$$$
Doesn’t a judge first have to certify a suit as representative of a class of litigants ?
Says who?
Rush is deeply saddened.
as a result of LifeLock's popular advertisements, CEO Davis's identity "was stolen while he was a customer and is, upon information and belief, presently being misappropriated by at least twenty identity thieves."
New Jersey’s one of the states where you can simply freeze your credit for free. It’s a $5 fee to thaw your credit if you need to.
A lot cheaper than $10/mo.
Georgia just passed a $3 freeze bill.
Does anyone out there know the status of the Governor’s signature or when we can start using it here in Georgia?
I can’t wait.
I equate IDTheft to airplane crashes. Rare but the result is devastating on a large scale.
Maybe now conservative talkers will ditch these annoying commercials. Next maybe they will all take a look at Direct Buy. They damage their credibility shilling for bogus products like these. Not to mention: Cortislim, Body Solutions, and worst of all The Three Step Plan ($150 a gallon fruit juice).
The commercial used to say that. It has not said that in a while.
Back when it was marketed as an insurance policy, it might have been a pretty attractive deal. But now it just has the smell of a scam.
I have to look into this.
He has been railing against LifeLock forever.
I believe you can set up your credit profiles to require all inquiries to contact you at an authorized number.
A few weeks ago, I went to their web page to try to see what they did. It wasn’t worth $10 a month, but for those who don’t know how to have the credit bureaus put the restrictions on their accounts, it would be helpful.
According to Consumer Protection, something promised in large print cannot be taken away in smaller print. I would think that a tv ad’s promises trump any small print.
