ID Theft Recovery services for peace of mind
And peace of wallet.
A dedicated Privacy Advocate will manage and resolve suspected or confirmed fraud until completion. These Fully Managed ID Theft Recovery Services cover three generations of your family, and includes financial and non-financial identity theft.
Identity Theft Expense Reimbursement Insurance also covers up to $25,000 of your out-of-pocket expenses incurred during the recovery of your identity. These expenses may include attorney’s fees, mailing expenses, and lost wages.2
Credit Freeze Assistance
A credit freeze lets you restrict access to your credit report, which makes it more difficult for identity thieves to open new accounts in your name. We can help you move through the process quickly and efficiently to better protect your credit.
IRS Tax Fraud Refund Advance
We’ll advance your tax refund if someone fraudulently files and receives it on your behalf. Get additional details here.
