ID Watchdog and Tech Live Connect to Protect Consumers at Risk of Identity Theft
DENVER, Jan. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ID Watchdog, Inc. (TSX.V: IDW) (OTC: IDWAF), provider of identity monitoring and preservation tools, today announced a new partnership with Tech Live Connect, a service provider offering "TLC" for malware infected or otherwise troubled PCs via an elite remote technical support staff. Users with malware infections and out of date system files suffer impaired computer performance and are at increased risk of identity theft; TLC is able to remove malware, update system files and restore PC performance, while Identity Theft Protection from ID Watchdog provides ongoing service and protection after the service call.
Tech Live Connect and ID Watchdog are dedicated to protecting customers' digital lives both on the PC and beyond. This partnership will offer an added layer of protection to those who are at a higher risk of identity theft.
"Our customers are often individuals who have fallen victim to viruses or have security 'holes' on their PC. Today's viruses and hackers are pursuing profit, often through identity theft," said Brian Cotter, CEO, Tech Live Connect. "This partnership with ID Watchdog allows us to enhance our 'peace of mind' value to our customers, and provide ongoing protection from identity theft after we've removed the virus and nullified any security holes."
As part of the agreement, ID Watchdog's identity monitoring and preservation tools will be offered directly to Tech Live Connect's customers whose devices are infected with viruses, malware or spyware. Once a customer signs up, they will be able to routinely monitor for critical changes in their credit report and personal information with alerts and resolution services provided at no additional cost.
"Identity theft can devastate its victims financially, and victims often face countless hours of frustration attempting to repair the damage on their own," said Michael Greene, CEO, ID Watchdog. "This partnership allows us to protect users at high risk of identity theft, giving them an early warning of potential issues, and an expert staff that can do the heavy lifting to get their identities and their lives back on track."
