It has been estimated that 500,000 children were the victims of identity theft last year. Not only do I find that number staggering, but the fact that it’s children who are being affected is doubly so. To think that one’s identity could be stolen as a kid is not only heart-breaking, but speaks of the desperate and despicable behavior one will go to make a buck.

Family Secure protects your family from identity theftFamily Secure is a website that focuses on providing parents with the means to protect their children’s identity from being stolen. It has the backing of ConsumerInfo.com, which belongs to Experian — the people who work with credit reports.

The thing about identity theft is that it could be years before the criminal is found out. And only when it’s too late does the victim learn about the wake of damage that has been left behind. Not only that, but when you’re talking about a child who is the victim, you’re talking about someone who is facing a long road ahead of them before they even enter adulthood.

One of the things Family Secure does is alert you when someone opens an account or applies for credit in your child’s name. Plus, they’ll do it when there is a significant change in your credit report.

There’s more to tell you, but I’d like you to find out for yourself by giving you one FREE year of their service. Yes, I have SIX promotional codes that I will give to the first six commenters to this post.

With one of these codes you will get one full year of FREE service to Family Secure instead of paying $19.95 a month. This means one parent and their child(ren) can enroll.

This has been one of my concerns for well over ten years now. My son at the age of 2 was sent a major credit card, of which I called the issueing bank and asked if it would be OK for him to sign with just an “X” sign he couldn’t write yet. They then scrambled to delete all his data from their systems after they finally understood that he was ONLY 2 years old. I have discovered that our children’s private DATA is being UNLAWFULLY demanded each year for enrollment into public schools and the DATA is not kept by any means secure, much is in the files right in the front office where any volunteer can access it without questions. Texas public schools are demanding copies of specific documents:

1. Certified County or State Issued Birth Certificates of which there are as many as 8 alternative equivalent documents that are listed which does the same tasks but protects guarded information that is contained only on the birth records.
2. Copies of Social Security Cards and Numbers of both the Child & enrolling Parent(s) which is done under/by coercion, which is in violation of U.S. Code (Privacy Act of 1974), Texas Case Law, and Texas Education Agency Rules.
3. Photo Copies of State Issued Drivers License/ ID of person (adult) enrolling child, which includes in detail more personal information than what Texas law requires, which is ONLY the name, address and date of birth. {TEC § 25.002.3.f}
4. Name, Address, Phone Numbers of the Employment of Adults enrolling child.
5. Name, Address, Phone Numbers of Medical Providers of the enrolled child.
6. Detail information of ALL medical history of the child.

They have denied enrollment of many children for not having the exact document stated as “REQUIRED” for enrollment, and threaten legal action against child/Adult if failure to provide the demanded/required information/documents. To the point that the hand out forms to request new/replacement Social Security Cards and instruct adults to go to the local Social Security Office to apply for the card(s).

Hi Anthony, thanks so much for all that great information. It amazes me the lengths companies will go to in order to get a name and possible business. There’s no excuse for them to have received your kid’s information. I guess they think it’s easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission. Thanks again for stopping by. Hope to see you return! :)

Anthony,

Identify theft happens all to often. I personal prefer to err on the side of caution.

Yes, i think ID theft is a sneaky, despicable crime. Worse still when children are targeted. It must be motivated by deranged hungers for drugs or possibly criminal gangs as in the Nigerian scams. We need to educate and protect our children fast. :!:
