Moving forward we want to make sure you are being proactive instead of reactive. That being said, we recommend getting in touch with our RamseyTrusted® provider, Zander Insurance, to get identity theft insurance in place. Once you’re a victim of ID theft, you’re at a higher risk of being a victim again in the future. While Zander cannot assist with any ID theft event that occurred before a plan was in place, they can offer you access to several resources to help guide you through what's next.
It is important to note that being a part of a data breach does not make you a victim of ID theft. Your information being compromised by a data breach does put you more at risk but, until an ID thief actually uses your information fraudulently, you have not been victimized.
A membership with Zander ID Theft not only provides you with unlimited recovery services to clear up fraud when you are a victim, but it also monitors and alerts you of suspicious activity, provides $1 million in stolen funds and expense reimbursement, and includes lost wallet protection services – just to name a few benefits!
