KeepMyID
Is This Your Business?Author: Kaitlyn Short
The former Head of Organized Crime Section, an FBI agent, Secret Service agents, a U.S. Marshal, three detectives from the Texas Rangers and the Police Department, and a former Chief State Prosecutor decided to take identity theft into their own hands and launched KeepMyID. The company is headquartered in Dallas, Texas, and donates 10 percent of its profits to charitable organizations.

Continous Fraud Alerts
While most identity theft companies merely monitor accounts, KeepMyID goes one step further and places fraud alerts on its customers' credit profiles every 90 days. When a new account is opened, the application is temporarily blocked until the user's identity has been verified. According to KeepMyID's website, the FBI claims this step alone will reduce chances of identity theft by more than 80 percent.Legal Representation
KeepMyID assigns each of its subscribers a private attorney as a personal representative. In the event of identity theft, this attorney works to recover losses.Education
In addition to the services that the company performs, KeepMyID also protects its customers through education. It teaches its subscribers tips on how to avoid identity theft and keep personal information safe.The Bad
- Inadequate Information
Inadequate Information
KeepMyID provides minimal information on its website and instead urges consumers to call for more information, which can be frustrating and inconvenient.
The Bottom Line
KeepMyID provides its customers with continuous fraud alerts, legal representation, and educational resources. However, the company provides little information on its website.
