LIFELOCK
In recent eColumns, we have pointed to the risk of identity theft and what you can do
about it. As a result, we have received a deluge of responses concerning our corporate
partner, LifeLock, so we decided to continue to revisit what they do, especially for
Seasoned Seniors. We believe in their product and offer what we have learned to help you
with the widespread threat of identity theft.
By now you have heard all the stories about Americans whose identities have been stolen.
Often it takes hundreds or even thousands of hours over many years to get their lives
back in order. You may have heard of unsuspecting people even losing homes because
identity thieves placed mortgages on those houses. Anyone, from old to young, are
susceptible to becoming a victim of ID theft, and it's getting worse every month.
LifeLock is one of the leading proactive theft prevention companies that can keep this from
happening to you. They specialize in the prevention of identity theft, rather than merely
reporting it after it happens. Best of all, they guarantee their service up to $1,000,000.
They were founded in 2005, are considered the industry leader, and they come well-
endorsed, from Paul Harvey to Rush Limbaugh, Dr. Laura, Sean Hannity and more. Count
MyBestYears.com in that number!
LifeLock's openly stated goal is to lock down your private information so no one except
you can approve its use.
They have been so successful at this that, without qualms, their CEO Todd Davis
publishes his Social Security number in their advertising.
LifeLock has been mentioned in more than 250 news stories, including the Wall Street
Journal, Money Magazine, MSNBC, CNN, CNBC, Wired, CBS "Early Show" and ABC "News
Now."
SPECIFICALLY, WHAT DOES LIFELOCK DO?
Their job is to protect your good name. They allow you to take more control over who uses
your identity and how they use it. They do the technical part to enforce your rights. And
the best part? They only charge $10 a month to do it.
LifeLock is perfect for individuals, families (yes, your children and grandchildren especially
need this protection), companies, universities, and non-profit organizations.
This is why MyBestYears.com uses LifeLock. We practice what we preach, and we can
recommend it highly for all Boomers and Seasoned Seniors!
And the best part is that it costs less than $10 a month!
So what are you waiting for?
MORE TO COME...

also committed to help you fight spam and malicious emails. We want to keep the Internet

your identity and how they use it. They do the technical part to enforce your rights. And
the best part? They only charge $10 a month to do it.
- First, they ask the credit bureaus to set fraud alerts on your behalf. Usually, this is
done through LifeLock's automated systems and the alerts are set within an hour.
- Second, they re-set those fraud alerts approximately every 90 days.
- Third, they get your name removed from pre-approved credit card and junk mail
lists. Statistics show that this is one of the most common ways that thieves hijack
identities.
- Fourth, they order free credit reports on your behalf from the major credit bureaus
which are then sent directly from the bureaus to you, and they do it every year.
- Last, in case your identity is ever stolen while you are their client (which is highly
unlikely, considering the $1,000,000 guarantee), LifeLock hires the best lawyers,
investigators, accountants and case managers to recover your good name. If you
lose money as a result of the theft, they will give it back to you. And it is invaluable
that you don't have to face this battle alone.
