NationalCreditReport.com Demystifies and Defines Identity Theft

Delray Beach, FL - June 29, 2009 - NationalCreditReport.com, a leading provider of free credit reports and credit monitoring services, announced their continued efforts to help consumers understand how identity theft is committed. From the moment a fraudster has access to someone’s personally identifiable information, damage can be done; this damage may take years to rectify with creditors. NationalCreditReport.com has developed nationwide identity theft protection programs giving consumers the ability to monitor their credit reports and be alerted quickly of any suspicious activity. Corrective actions can be taken almost immediately.

Identity theft is defined as fraud that involves a person pretending to be someone else in order to steal money or receive other benefits. There are many ways identity theft can be committed including stealing Social Security numbers, applying for a credit card under a false name, and withdrawing money from people’s bank accounts. The results can be financially devastating to a person and affect all aspects of their life. Installing an identity theft protection program with a credit monitoring service can help stop identity theft in its tracks.

“Having an identity theft protection plan and credit monitoring service is the first step to stop someone from assuming your identity. Early notification is crucial to prevent a fraudster from using your credit cards, stealing money from your bank account and ruining your financial life,” said Samuel S. Ambrose, NationalCreditReport.com’s Vice President of Marketing & Operations. “At NationalCreditReport.com, we define identity theft as the unauthorized use of your personally identifiable information to commit fraud or other crimes.”

NationalCreditReport.com’s services include three different products that offer identity theft protection nationwide. Each product includes identity theft insurance; credit monitoring and reporting, and free credit scores.
