Pre-Paid Legal, Part 4 (IdentityTheft Shield)



I just received my first email notification from IdentityTheft Shield, the credit-monitoring service provided by Pre-Paid Legal. The title read like this:

Credit Monitoring No Activity Notice from Identity Theft Shield

It went on to say that my credit file (well, Experian, at least, since that's who they're partnered with) showed no activity over the last month. What a relief, right?

As part of your membership in Identity Theft Shield, we have been continually monitoring your credit file. We check for certain changes, such as companies who have inquired on your credit, new account information, change of address, public records, and derogatory information. We’ll send you an activity alert when these changes are reported.

In addition, we will notify you each month if no activity is reported on your credit file.


Not a bad service, I suppose. Probably it's even better for someone like me, who's inclined to post so much personal information on the internet. Can't hurt to be "monitored" like this on a regular basis!

that's great.

Thoughts on my personal finances, goals, experiences, motivations, and accomplishments (or lack thereof).

My financial life began turning around when I took responsibility for it.
