As we have received several private messages regarding the identity theft of children and what to do about it, we would like to take this opportunity to ask our readers to consider implementing a credit freeze for their children.

We think the credit freeze is currently the most effective tool available to deter identity thieves.

Please watch the above video and link to it, embed it and share it with your friends with children.

More information is also available on our web sites credit freeze page.

    It is important to remember that child identity theft does not only include a person opening a credit card in the child’s name. Identity thieves use the child’s name, Social Security number or other personal information to also obtain driver’s licenses or open bank or utility accounts. In some cases, a child’s identity can even be sold to illegal immigrants. Because of this, a credit freeze isn’t going to full protect your child from identity theft. You need outside help.
