Defend yourself from identity theft!
Most of us believe identity theft is something that happens to other people. Since it hasn’t happened to us, we must already be doing enough to protect ourselves, right?
The unfortunate fact is identity theft can occur even if you think you’ve done everything to protect yourself. As Arizonans, we live in the state that leads the nation in identity theft. It’s up to each of us to take extra precautions toward fraud.
Arm yourself
As an Arizona Federal member, you have access to valuable educational tools to help ensure you’re practicing safe personal information handling.
Educating yourself is an important first step to protect yourself from fraud. Arizona Federal offers free educational seminars and several online articles in our Education Center at ArizonaFederal.org.
Preventative action
You can take the first step toward added protection. We offer IDefend — an online identity theft program — and their comprehensive protection plan for purchase. You’re also able to register for access to free educational material.
The IDefend Plan provides participants with a comprehensive package of services including:
- Weekly credit monitoring
- A yearly credit report
- A personalized protection plan
- Fraud alerts
- A recovery assessment from a trained Recovery Advocate if victimized
- Up to $20,000 in lost wage and expense reimbursement
You’re able to purchase plans for individuals or families. The individual plan is only $4.95 per month or $49.99 a year (a savings of $9.41 over the monthly rate). For the family plan, the purchase price is $9.95 per month or $89.99 a year (a savings of $29.41 over the monthly rate). The Family Plan extends protection and recovery services to family members with the exception of the yearly credit report and monitoring.
Peace of mind
Just one criminal can do a significant amount of damage with relatively minimal effort. With minimal effort on our parts, we can protect ourselves and our credit.
Visit ArizonaFederal.org/IDefend to sign up for one of their protection plans today and feel confident that you’re taking the next step in defending yourself from identity theft.
