Discount available for Lifelock subscription

I stopped treating identity theft as as abstract concept a couple of years ago when a house in my neighborhood was sold to a man had never heard of our community and had never shopped for a house there.

Apparently, someone used the man's identity to get an inflated mortgage. The thief then paid the seller, pocketed the extra cash and disappeared.

That’s the sort of shenanigans that Lifelock is designed to prevent. It’s a subscription service that monitors your credit score, financial activity and personal information and alerts you if it detects suspicious activity.

If you’re a victim of identity theft, Lifelock helps restore your true identity. It also monitors black market websites to see if client data is being sold or distributed.

Lifelock’s protection plans range in price from $9.95 per month to $29.99. You can get a free trial and a 15% discount if you sign up using this link to the Lifelock enrollment page and entering the promo code FREEDOM1.
