The Rising Spectre of Identity Theft

Once you have gotten into trouble credit-wise it is very easy to start to panic. One small mistake leads to another, and then another. One day you wake up to the sound of a creditor calling instead of an alarm clock. For many in this economic climate, this credit problem will get worse before it gets better.

Those that have read my
book already know how to stop the collection calls, and how protecting their identity was one of the easier things they did that day.  They are aware that the largest jump in credit score they ever saw was a direct result of knowing where to apply the correct pressure. 

For those of you reading this that have not yet found my book, let me give you a reason to read it.  The average victim of Identity Theft does not notice the use of their credit for 14 MONTHS!!! 

More than a YEAR goes by before they take action, and thousands of dollars have been stolen. (The average theft is over $9467.00) What is even worse than the MONEY stolen? Last year several thousand WARRANTS were issued for the arrest of THE VICTIM of these crimes!!  

You read that right, the warrants were issued for the victim of the crime. Remember, it was the IDENTITY that was stolen. The criminal has become YOU, and their crimes were perpetrated with your name attached. 

Puts a whole new spin on protecting your credit doesn't it. We are not talking about a few thousand bucks, we are talking about your freedom. At the very least we are speaking about the time, money, and trouble it takes to erase the damage caused by one of these thieves. 

Think about this, if your home is broken into and your possessions are stolen, you file a police report, and call your insurance company. You might have to replace a few items, and maybe somethings can never be replaced. 

On the other hand, if your identity is what is stolen, someone else becomes YOU. Whatever they do, whatever crime they commit, it is you who did it. Well, at least until you prove otherwise. 

I like to give this example. Let's say you are the judge, and two people come before you, both swearing I.D. theft.  The first one shows the thief used their identity for 14 months and stole $5,000 dollars. You know that is an average length of time, and the victim lost less than most do, but you might question his innocence.

The second victim stands in front of you, he read my book, but only followed one or two things in it. He states that the theft occurred for 5 months before he caught on, and the theft was $2,300 dollars.  You marvel at this man's luck and believe him to be innocent of the charges he faces. 

This story actually has a third person. It was the woman who read, and applied ALL of what my book teaches. She took one simple, FREE action, and never had her Identity tampered with at all. She invested a few hours in learning how to beat the thief before he struck, rather than after.
 
I am going to tell you what to do to be the third person in the hopes you will buy my book, and tell others about it. Go to my contact page at
