One of my favorite CSI Miami episodes involves two women, each one claiming that she is the real victim of identity theft and the other is the culprit. Imagine how far some people would go just to steal someone else's identity to obtain benefits and services... Really freaky!

Illegal usage of another individual's identity commonly happens in credit card fraud. I have friends in the US who became victims of this practice. They said this kind of crime was so devastating that it got to a point where they found it hard to disclose personal details even in important work-related documents.

Efforts have been made to stop stealing of someone else's identity. In the US, companies like Lifelock have launched identity protection programs to help avoid identity theft.

Lifelock, the industry leader in identity theft prevention, guarantees its members' identities up to $1,000,000. The company is currently giving away Life Lock Promotion Codes to new members. Members can use the LifeLock Promo Code to avail exclusive discounts from the company. It is also important to note that the Life Lock Promo Code can be obtained online so it is really easy to get one.

You may be a victim already but you just don't know about it... YET. If I were you, I'd make sure that my good name is protected. Take advantage of the limited discounts that Lifelock offers. Hurry up and get an identity theft protection program now.
