ID Theft Doesn’t Take Long To Do A Lot Of Damage.

September 13th, 2008

I ran into an old friend of mine who invited me to lunch to get caught up.

After we picked a place to eat, I asked him what he’d been doing for the last few years.

What he said blew me away.

“I’ve had to spend the last 18 months fixing my good name and credit after an identity thief acquired some of my personal information and proceeded to destroy almost all my financial capability,” he told me.

“Wow,” was all could say. “Identity theft?”

“Yes, it was terrible. I really don’t know the specifics, but all I can say is to get some protection today.”

I quickly took his advice.
