Identity Theft Update

Your identity is one of your most important assists. Violation of your identity is frightening and can be costly, but most consumers tell themselves it cannot happen to them. No one is immune to identity theft. It's the fastest growing crime in America. Being a victim to identity theft not only tarnishes your good name, it can potentially ruin your credit, compromise your financial and medical history, and drain your assets.

There are many things you can do to protect yourself from identity theft;
