Now, If You Lose Your Identity, We Help You Keep Your Sanity.
Identity Theft Costs Money – And Time.
When someone uses your personal or financial information to commit fraud or other
crimes, you are a victim of identity theft. It is America's fastest growing crime.
The cost of recovering a stolen identity can reach a thousand dollars or more. But
victims report that the time and emotional toll identity theft and recovery take
are the greatest losses.
It is frustrating, confusing and, at times, even frightening. That is particularly
true in cases where the thief takes control of your identity and opens one or more
fraudulent accounts in your name.
Help on the Road to Recovery.
With this optional endorsement added to your homeowners policy you’ll not only get
identity theft coverage for identity recovery expenses, but also identity recovery
services for personal help restoring your credit and identity records. Highlights
of our Identity Recovery Coverage include:
Identity Recovery Helpline.
Identity Recovery Counselors are available at our toll-free Helpline to initiate
your identity theft claim and get you on the road to identity recovery. A Counselor
will answer your questions, recommend important next steps, provide claim forms
and send you an "Identity Recovery Customer Guide".
Experienced Case Managers.
Verified identity theft claimants who want personal help with the identity recovery
process will be assigned an experienced Case Manager. Your Case Manager will handle
all the steps you approve that a third party can legally take on your behalf to
help you identify where fraud has occurred, make the right contacts and speed the
often complicated recovery process. If you prefer to manage the process yourself,
your "Identity Recovery Customer Guide", a stepby- step source complete with pre-written
letters to creditors and credit bureaus, will help you every step of the way.
Expense Reimbursement.
Identity Theft Coverage reimburses you for up to $25,000 for covered expenses incurred
to repair your credit history and identity records in the event of an identity theft.
