Intelius offers a fraud prevention service called Identity Protect. This fraud prevention service monitors the web and public records to identify identity theft and suspicious behavior. If there's a suspected fraud, Identity Protect sends you an email notification. In the event that you are the victim of fraud, this ID theft protection service provides $1 million of insurance coverage.

With an Identity Protect membership, you receive an instant credit report and score. In addition to this, you can see who has been viewing your credit report. Identity Protect monitors your personal information from each of the three credit bureaus. It also allows you to track your credit score.

In addition to monitoring your credit information, Identity Protect also monitors changes to your public records. You can set alerts and receive notifications regarding your name, social security number, address, phone number, credit card numbers, loan information and public records. If anything looks suspicious, Identity Protect will immediately notify you via email.

Intelius prides itself in how thorough it is in gathering public information. It gathers 20 billion records annually. However, keep in mind that these records pertain to all sorts of topics, such as deaths, births, commercial publications, marriages and divorces, and more.

Although this service monitors your credit information and public records, it doesn't monitor as many items as other ID theft protection services do. Additionally, Identity Protect can't freeze your credit to stop identity theft. It only alerts you of possible threats.

If this identity protection falls short and your personal information is compromised, Identity Protect insures you for up to $1 million. It also provides you with an identity recovery kit. This fraud prevention service also has representatives who work around the clock to help you in the event of an identity theft. You can send an email if you have questions about the service or look through the FAQs page on the Intelius website.
