Identity Protection

I personally feel that there is something quite scary about the fact that some unscrupulous people can steal your identity and use your money and cards for their own benefit. When everything is so digital and computerised it doesn't take much for someone to be able to hack into your information and to pretend to be you or me. A week ago I took out identity theft protection and have now finished registering once the welcome pack arrived. I feel more confident even though this service is relatively expensive, knowing that it'll be easier to sort out any problems if some should occur because of identity theft. Perhaps it is a statement on our culture that the concept of identity should be so important now and theft possible.
