I was walking down the street the other day and found a wallet next to the curb. When I checked inside to see who it belonged to I was shocked to see that it was loaded with cash and several platinum credit cards. I wanted to do the right thing and turn it in, but something in me snapped and my darker side took over. This guy is so famous, yet so easy to impersonate, it was almost perfect. I won’t name names but I bet you can figure it out 
I rushed home to dig through my closet, I had the perfect outfit just waiting. Within the hour I was headed out of town to begin my shopping spree. A 60″ Plasma TV, a PS3 with a stack of games and a 7.1 channel surround sound system were just around the corner.
If this guy had been using Lifelock he’d have been fully protected from my evil schemes. This of course has been a dramatization, but similar events can and do happen every day. In this age with all our technological advancements, protecting your identity is more important than ever. For as little as $10 a month, Lifelock will help to keep your good name safe. In fact, the owner is so confident in the strength of his product that he has posted his own Social Security number right on the website for the whole world to steal see.
