And is there a way to find out?
Well, believe it or not, someone has come up with a number that tells you how likely it is that your ID will be stolen.
And actually, it’s not new. I’ve never heard of it, have you? Financial institutions and other creditors have, apparently, been using this number for over a decade.
Businesses use ID score to calculate the risk that customers are actually who they say they are! Crazy.
One of the companies responsible for developing and selling the score to businesses, ID Analytics, is now making it available to consumers for free on the website My ID Score.com.
Fill out contact information and answer some questions about your financial history. You don’t have to enter your social security number. They then give you a score between 1 and 999. The higher the score, the higher your risk for identity theft.
If your score is high, they provide a link to the nonprofit Identity Theft Resource Center which can teach you how to protect yourself.
What’s your number?
Hi Karen,
I receive your e-mails on a regular basis and think that you are absolutely
right about ID Theft and the risk people face with their identity being
stolen. I work in this field personally and wanted to share a link with you
about how we help and protect families from their identity being stolen.
