Too Late
Posted by: adminSometimes we need to experience something before we can learn from it. We need to experience lose to avoid being complacent. We need to have our identity stolen before we safeguard it. Sad but true. I have known about the service provided by lifelock before but I still opted not to get it. Despite the lifelock promotion code they offer at lifelock.com , I thought it was just a waste of money. I have been ensured that my confidential information can never be in the hands of the crooks. But when I received a call from my credit card company informing me that I already maxed out the limit of my credit card, I was shocked. I thought that my credit card was stolen and was used in making financial transaction. But when I check my wallet my card was sitting there. Then someone must have gotten my credit card number. When I checked the transaction made using my credit card. They were all internet transactions meaning no signature required. I tried to be a responsible credit card holder and I just use my card sparingly. I would rather use my check or pay in cash since credit card interest are a bit high. Then I realize, I must have left my credit card receipt when I dine in a restaurant.
There are many ways my card information can be obtain. Have I safeguarded my name under LIFELOCK, this incident would never happen.
