LifeLock Protects the Contents of Your Wallet
LifeLock does more than protect your identity. They also protect the contents of your wallet with a service called 'WalletLock'. I think that's a pretty clever name and really describes what you're getting.
If your wallet is lost or stolen, the first thing you'd be worried about is someone using your credit cards. If you happened to have your social security number in your wallet, you're in for full-blown identity theft. Any cash you may have been carrying is small potatoes compared to the value of your identity to a thief.
Here's some things you may carry in your wallet:
- driver's license
- credit cards
- debit card
- insurance card
- social security card
- Medicare card
- voter id card
- blank checks
- your spouse and kid's social security numbers
.. All the kinds of things you just don't want to lose.
Because losing your wallet is directly connected to having your identity stolen, it's perfectly logical for an identity theft protection plan to also protect the contents of your wallet – yet LifeLock is the only company offering this service.
The quicker you can alert banks and authorities about the theft, the more you can minimize the damage identity thieves can do. That's where WalletLock simply shines. All you have to do is call LifeLock's toll-free 800 number (1-800-LIFELOCK) and you'll get a specialist to help you through this bad situation.
If you're travelling overseas and lose your wallet, you can make a collect call to LifeLock at 480-682-5100 and get the same help.
Visit the WalletLock page on LifeLock's website to download the WalletLock pdf file. Use it to record the account numbers, policy numbers and contact numbers of the contents of your wallet. Whenever you get a different card, list it on this sheet for your records.
Any card of yours that you're carrying are covered – you don't have to register them with the WalletLock service. Now you've got even more peace of mind from LifeLock!
