Identity Theft is Real!

I've never done this before on this site, but sometimes something is so important that you have to share it... so here's my public service announcement for the day.

Those of you who do not live in the VA area may not have heard about what happened at George Mason University last week. More than 30,000 students and staff have potentially been victimized by a hacker who got into the university's computer systems and stole personal information which may have included Social Security numbers. Click here to read the article.

I've been watching those commercials about the guy-next-door going through his neighbors trash can to get personal information, but it's starting to hit a little too close to home for me. I decided I needed to do some research on what I could do to protect myself and my family. The timing was perfect (remember from previous posts that I don't believe in "coincidences") because a few days after that happened, one of my closest friends shared some information on a valuable resource that offers very affordable identity theft protection. I signed up for the identity theft and pre-paid legal service right away and am comforted by the peace of mind that my family now has.

There is also an awesome business opportunity that's available, so if you're in need of additional income, or are at least keeping your income options open, feel free to take a look. But regardless of whether you're interested in the business part of it, please please do yourself and your family a favor and take a look at the services this company has to offer. For less than the cost of a cup of coffee a day, you can protect your family from the fastest-growing crime in America. Click here for more info.
