Pre-Paid Legal and You

From textografico.com:

Finding a sense of security in today’s world can be a challenge. With the way that the economy and job market is these days it can be hard for you to feel safe in this world. Some people may want to take advantage of you in these hard times and when they do it can leave you feeling helpless if you’re not prepared.

Having a lawyer on standby is a luxury that many of us feel like we cannot afford. With the high prices that lawyers charge and with the standard income of an Average Joe like you and me it is difficult to take care of ourselves when a legal dispute arises. Fortunately for us there are pre-paid legal services like legalshield that we can use. By using these pre-paid legal services we can have a sense of security as we go throughout our normal days. It will be similar to having “legal insurance”. I urge you to look into it, it won’t cost you an arm and a leg and you deserve the security that comes with it. Remember, you don’t have to be taken advantage of!

Although medical id theft is one of the fastest growing segments of identity theft, most people are still unaware of this crime even though it can cost people many thousands of dollars or worse your life.

Medical identity theft occurs when someone utilizes your medical information. They may get prescriptions, get treated for illnesses or have other procedures done in your name.

If the massive bills you could receive and the potentiality to be dropped from your insurance are  not bad enough, the changes to your medical records are devastating. This is because most victims of identity theft do not know they have been such for quite sometime after the crime has occurred, but also because most people never check their medical records. The thief may have a different blood type or other medical information than that of the victim and the thief’s information get placed in the medical file with that of the victim.

Data Breaches Hit Close To Home

As we go through the course of days and lives, we deal with many businesses and entities. We get utilities in our new home, we sign up for an insurance policy, obtain a gym membership, apply for a job, or maybe get a discount card from our favorite retail store. These things are done many times without a second thought of where that information goes or how it is stored and protected.

As we have shifted into the information age, information has now become a commodity, particularly of a personal nature, and like any commodity it is bought and sold. That is why there are databases and there are databases for nearly anything and everything. The problem is that this information is being stolen at a dizzying pace. According to the Privacy Rights Clearinghouse, there have been over 340 million records compromised since 2005.  

Tennessee has not been immune to data breaches. On Christmas Eve 2007, two laptops were stolen from the Davidson County Election Commission which contained personal information every registered voter in the county, 337,000 people. Tennessee Tech suffered two data losses; one in 2008 when a flash drive was lost that held the names and Social Security numbers of 990 students, and another took place in 2009 when an errant email revealed 3,100 Social Security numbers. A flash drive was lost at Tennessee State that contained the names and financial information of 9,000 people. Lifeblood in Memphis lost the information of 321,000 when laptops came up missing.
