LifeLock Speaker Series
There once was a time when the average consumer associated identity theft simply with buying a nifty shredder at Office Depot, shredding personal documents, and being done with it. Those days are over. Nowadays, we hear in the news nearly every single day about some new high-tech scam being used by identity thieves to steal your information and wreak havoc on your financial life. And while many of us may be aware that LifeLock holds an elite spot as the industry leader in identity theft protection, and that identity theft is affecting people all around us, it’s still entirely possible not everyone really understand the in’s and out’s of the nation’s number one crime. (Keep in mind, in the time it took you to read this paragraph, about 10 more people just joined the list of identity theft victims.)
So, in order to continue the ball rolling in increasing identity theft education among all consumers, LifeLock has developed a new program called the LifeLock Speaker Series. With a focus on reaching more people in more places, the program is a series of free educational seminars on identity theft issues and trends. Each presentation is hosted by a Certified Identity Theft Risk Management Specialist and personally customized to fit the needs of specific groups, such as senior citizens, college and high school students, businesses, and law enforcement organizations, just to name a few. It’s designed so that individuals with similar interests can come together and learn about the latest identity theft trends, the inherent risks associated with the crime, as well as the types of proactive measures all consumers should take in order to minimize their risks of becoming a victim.
LifeLock’s Speaker Series provides consumers with the right tools to begin thinking twice when it comes to handling any and all sensitive personal information. It gives groups of people with a lack of knowledge about identity theft the opportunity to empower themselves. The goal is for consumers to no longer consider shredding papers the primary mechanism for defeating this crime.
