Advance Auto Parts is offering credit monitoring for one year to impacted customers. IdentityTruth is reaching out to Advance customers to provide them the option of more complete coverage at a special, discounted rate, since credit monitoring alone does not prevent identity theft. IdentityTruth’s technology helps to predict possible fraud and delivers ongoing alerts about any changes to the individual’s credit and identity profile. This can help to prevent other types of fraud such as the theft of social security numbers, or the creation of new utility accounts—activities which would not be detected by simple credit monitoring. The creation of new utility accounts is often the first step taken by identity thieves as they seek to use the stolen identity to commit other fraud.
If you believe that your information was stolen during the Advance Auto Parts security breach, you need to take action now to prevent identity theft. Whether the breach occurred last week or last year, your personal information may be in criminal hands and can be used at any time for identity theft. Simple credit monitoring only reports criminal activity after damage to your credit has been done. Only complete, proactive identity monitoring ensures that your identity, assets, and credit are protected.
IdentityTruth understands that your identity is your life and is committed to offering the most complete identity theft prevention services possible. Visit IdentityTruth.com to see if your identity has been compromised.
