How does NIPB protect the consumer?

NIPB offers a service for consumers that detects the trail of a thief providing early detection of all categories of Identity Theft.

NIPB searches for information using over 5800 sources nationwide. NIPB’s unique method coupled with existing credit monitoring, offered by True Credit a division of Trans Union, provides the only comprehensive nationwide Identity Theft monitoring available today!

What makes NIPB’s product so unique?

There are so many ways thieves can acquire a victim’s personal information, it is relatively easy today especially through the Internet. Equally, there are dozens of ways a thief can use personal information to hurt a victim beyond just using a credit card number or opening up a new credit account. NIPB’s service detects irregularities spanning all categories of Identity Theft, not just a narrow range that other Identity Theft monitoring providers offer.

What is an example of theft that NIPB can detect?

One of the most prevalent ways a thief hides their crime is by using an address different than the victim’s address, that way the victim never knows what the thief is up to; NIPB detects change of address activity and alerts their subscriber.
