Alloy Silverstein Adds New Solution: Identity Theft Defense

Introducing Identity Theft Defense Services from Alloy Silverstein Accountants and Advisors.

 
With more and more data breaches being reported each year, Alloy Silverstein recognizes that something needs to be done to protect clients and business owners from the financial devastation that identity theft vulnerability can cause. The firm’s new identity theft defense package can aid individuals and married couples in being proactive by protecting their tax returns, credit reports, and setting up security measures that hinders unauthorized use and access of social security numbers.

 

Inaction now can cost you later: This is a one-time service that could protect you for years. Take control of your financial future and let an Alloy Silverstein CPA and advisor handle putting proactive safeguards in place for the protection of your tax returns and credit.

 

For a flat-fee, your Alloy Silverstein accountant and business advisor will:

  • Report exposure to the IRS and obtain a pin.
  • Alert state taxing authorities where applicable.
  • Place a freeze on credit files from all 3 bureaus.
  • One-time request and review credit reports from all 3 bureaus.
  • Instruct you on security best practices and how to be proactive in your monitoring going forward.

 

While Alloy Silverstein’s identity theft defense services can be applied by proactive individuals who want added security to their data or after news breaks of any major data breach, there is a strong need for the service at this current point in time due to the 2017 Equifax data breach. Are you one of 143 million? That’s reportedly the number of individuals whose personal data, including social security numbers, has been compromised in the aftermath of the recent Equifax mess. Unlike credit card theft, it’s not as simple as changing an account number. Identity thieves can attempt to use your social security number for unauthorized activity in the coming weeks or even years from now.
