IDStrong Offers Free Scan to Check Identity Theft Exposure

BOSTON, June 9, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- As the FTC receives a record number of complaints regarding scams involving COVID-19, IDStrong, a premier credit and identity theft monitoring company is offering a free threat-level scan that can help consumers evaluate their exposure before enrolling in a monitoring product.

"Nobody wants to pay for a subscription-based product that they don't even need - especially in a down economy," said Levon Gasparian, CEO of IDStrong. "Our free scan can help consumers understand how vulnerable they are to identity theft, so that they can make informed decisions about what level of monitoring is in their best interest."

The scan is simple, safe and can be completed using a name, phone number, email address, username, or social security number. After inputting one or more of these pieces of information, a full threat assessment report will be generated within minutes.

The report details three areas:

    --  Data breaches in which the individual's information was included.
    --  Personal information on the dark web and other nefarious websites.
    --  Financial risk including exposure of social security number.

Those who receive reports indicating little or no threat may choose to forgo monitoring or opt for a more basic service. Those who see an elevated level may want to consider a more robust monitoring and recovery plan.

IDStrong's services go beyond just credit bureau monitoring to monitor personal information such as name, phone number, email addresses, social security number, driver's license number and much more in the dark web. In addition to monitoring, some packages include credit restoration assistance and $1M Identity Theft Insurance.

"Cleaning up after identity theft is much more costly than paying for prevention," continued Gasparian. "Identity theft monitoring is akin to annual checkup - necessary action to head off any minor issues before they become serious."
