ID Theft Quiz marks LifeLock's five years of identity theft protection services with free shredding event
ID Theft Quiz offers small businesses the opportunity to have their documents securely shredded and help protect their employees and customers from identity theft.
Online, April 12, 2010 (Newswire.com) - ID Theft Quiz has opened their Tallahassee, Florida office to local small businesses to provide them with a free, secure shredding service during the months of April and May. With a quick phone call or email, businesses can arrange to have their outdated personnel, customer and financial records shredded to minimize the risk of data breaches.
So far this month, ID Theft Quiz has shredded more than 500 pounds of sensitive records, an extension of the free ID theft prevention information they provide on their website at IDTheftQuiz.com. Their mission is bring attention to the importance of safeguarding confidential records and furthering the public's education on the pervasive risks of ID theft, and giving them the tools to better protect themselves. To that end, ID Theft Quiz has introduced thousands of consumers to the innovative tools and strategies available through LifeLock.
The free shredding event was planned to coincide with the fifth anniversary of identity theft service provider LifeLock, the industry leader in proactive protection. Five years after they opened their doors in April 2005, more than 1.6 million Americans rely on LifeLock's extensive services to help protect them from identity thieves who often use documents stolen from small businesses to gather information. More than seventy-five percent of the LifeLock members who enrolled in 2005 and 2006 remain as satisfied members.
"We're happy to help local business owners take steps to safeguard the confidential information they hold," said Kurt Artecona, ID Theft Quiz CEO. "When huge international corporations are hacked and millions of records are stolen, everybody hears about it, but a lot of the other small business owners might not realize how vulnerable their businesses, employees and customers are. Or, they might not know how to protect them.
More than 11 million Americans became identity fraud victims last year, and I've heard enough ID theft horror stories over the years to know how devastating ID theft can be, and it makes me feel good about what we do," Artecona said.
Business owners interested in learning more about identity theft protection or want to take advantage of the ID Theft Quiz shredding event can call (850) 222-8291 for further information.
