What is identity theft anyway? Identity theft is the theft of your identity. If my identity is prone to theft, wouldn't my primary objective be, to keep my identity private, from all exposure? Of course. The problem is, we're not treating our identities like our money. We don't let anyone know how much we have in our little piggies now do we. But, when we need a car, a cellphone, car or apartment, we stuck giving it out.
Now, you might be comfortable with that. I'm not. I never have been. I prefer keeping my data private. Now, there are those cases and entities that by law, require knowledge of my SSN. In those cases, I concede. But, please...anyone, try convincing me that a car salesman needs to know my social, just so he can type into a web site to pull my credit. Anyone?? Anyone?? No one can make the case. So, I choose MasqMe, the identity masquerade! With their system, I can generate a temporary disguise that expires mind you, that they will use inplace of my Social Security Number. It's perfect. I don't have to share it, yet the salesguy gets my credit report and can approve or deny me based on my credit score and history...simple and easy. The merchant logs into their account at http://www.masqme.com/ to look my disguise up..clean simple and private...
More people need to take MasqMe's security seriously. I'm so serious about the privacy of my ID, that it's the first thing I ask for... "Do you check credit through MasqMe?" If they don't I ask them to, or leave...
MasqMe, the Identity Masquerade
Don't check credit without it!
