if it sounds too good, it probably is!

Several months ago as I was just getting immersed in this field of home security I found what sounded like a great personal insurance policy for identity protection - Lifelock. But after researching what it provided, and what I could get for free from folks like Experian - I decided to pass.

Today - I see this being written about the company in Computerworld
"Contrary to the all-encompassing impression created through LifeLock's
advertisements, the protection it claims to provide only extends to limited
instances of identity theft," claims the complaint filed against the company in
New Jersey's Middlesex County Superior Court. The complaint also asserts that
LifeLock actually has failed to protect Davis' identity, saying that his
personal information has been misappropriated in at least 20 separate identity
theft incidents.
