DeleteMe offers free month of info removal for Marriott Starwood data breach victims

BOSTON, Nov. 30, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- DeleteMe today announced that anyone who had their personal information hacked in the Marriott Starwood data breach is eligible for a free month of DeleteMe – the #1 privacy protection and information removal service in the world – when subscribing to any DeleteMe plan. 

Why DeleteMe is more effective than credit freezes and credit monitoring

DeleteMe works by finding and removing your personal information from dozens of data brokers.  Data broker websites make your personal info public when others search for it, and sell in-depth profiles of you and your family to buyers at prices ranging from $0.99 to $50.  By removing this info, DeleteMe stops hackers from easily finding more information about you for identity theft purposes including your:

• Home address / home value
• Age, sex, political affiliation
• Email addresses
• Phone number and mobile phone number
• Family members', ages, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses

Credit monitoring and credit freezes simply do not stop many cases of identity theft where hackers use all the information they can buy from data brokers to falsely prove they are you. 

How identity thieves use info from data breaches like Marriott

• Credit Line Fraud – Scammers open new credit cards in a victim's name, impacting chances of receiving future credit
• Tax Return Fraud – Scammers can file for a fake tax return using a name and stolen Social Security Number
• Healthcare Fraud – With increasing costs, medical identity theft is on the rise
• Committing Crimes in your name – When in contact with law enforcement, victims of identity theft can be arrested for crimes they didn't commit
• Social Engineering – Hackers take over social media accounts of friends and family, targeting other individuals to get them to send money or other personal information
