IDnotify

IDnotify, a part of Experian, is a service that provides identity theft protection and credit monitoring to individuals. Their services include monitoring the dark web for personal information, social media monitoring, credit report monitoring from all three major bureaus, and alerts for potential fraud. Customers are typically individuals who sign up for these services directly or through partners like TurboTax to safeguard their personal and financial data. The exposure of personal information that IDnotify monitors, such as Social Security numbers, credit card details, and other sensitive data, places individuals at significant risk of identity theft, financial fraud, and stalking. This information could be used by criminals to open new accounts, commit financial crimes, or engage in other malicious activities. To protect yourself from data brokers and identity theft, it is important to be aware of what information is being collected about you and limit the amount of personal information you share online.
