Protect your customer’s identity with professional restoration services and support for a fraction of the cost. Nearly 2 in 5 Americans have experienced identity theft firsthand, or know someone who has. Identity theft is a crime in which an impostor obtains key pieces of personal identifying information such as Social Security numbers and driver's license numbers and uses them for their own personal gain. It can start with lost or stolen wallets, stolen mail, a data breach, computer virus, “phishing” scams, or paper documents thrown in the garbage.
