PROGRAM
The process of restoring one’s identity can be overwhelming and time-consuming, and victims can spend hundreds of hours working to restore their name and credit file information after an identity fraud occurs. The ID TheftSmart program provides continuous monitoring of an individual’s credit report. If an individual finds out that her/his identity has been tampered with, the Licensed Investigators at ID TheftSmart will provide assistance.
An ID TheftSmart membership includes:
• A tri-merged credit report from all three national credit repositories
• Confidential Credit® Smart Score, including up to four factor descriptions that help
explain why a credit score is as it appears
• Access to a continuous credit monitoring service that will alert the member to five types of credit activity commonly associated with identity theft
• Assistance of professional Licensed Investigators to consult with the member who has questions or concerns about identity theft and fraud, and to perform searches of non-credit databases. If the member becomes a victim of identity fraud, the Investigator will restore his or her identity to pre-theft status
