You’ve having a late brunch with your best friend at Sardi’s, heading out later for an afternoon matinee on Broadway. Just as you take your first mouthwatering bite, she says, “I got turned down for my promotion.”

Full of compassion and surprise, you ask, Why?”

Identity Theft VictimThe tears begin to flow like Niagara Falls. “My company ran a background check and found my driver’s license was suspended for a DUI.

“You don’t have a driver’s license.”

“I know I don’t have a driver’s license,” she wailed. “In any event, there’s a warrant out for my arrest. That gurgling sound you hear is my life going down the crapper.”

You’re stunned. How sad and how devastating for your friend. You remember agreeing with her just a few weeks ago about getting identity theft monitoring services pronto. But she just hasn’t gotten around to it. At this point, your friend is in jeopardy of losing her career, plus she has a legal nightmare to deal with, all because some nut job got a driver’s license in her name and used it when the clone got arrest.

What do you tell your friend? You could say, “I told you this could happen,” but chances are, she’ll never talk to her again. So, you say, “Look, this identity monitoring company helps people whether or not you’re in the middle of an identity theft crisis. Give them a call and they’ll get a lawyer in touch with you right away. You don’t have to handle the nightmare yourself, lose a huge chunk of time from work, and do all the paperwork.”

You’ll think of your friend often as you board the plane for your three-week vacation in London, free to do as you please. She’ll be in good hands if she just calls your company.

With complete identity theft monitoring, restoration, and legal services, your friend would have learned about someone cloning her identity long before this situation got so out of control.

As you see in our video, Identity Theft can come at you from many different angles regardless of who you are, where you live or how much money you do or do not have. Unfortunately, credit monitoring only covers credit fraud versus non-credit related Identity Theft Monitoring, which covers your entire Identity.

So you hand your friend the phone number to call, finish your lunch and still make the matinee in time for the show. You know your friend will be in good hands and you will enjoy your vacation. Don’t you just love a happy ending? Your Identity Defender,
