Identity Protection Support
Everyone’s identity is potentially at risk. Identity theft is one of the fastest growing crimes in the United States today and has been the top consumer complaint received by the FTC for the seventh year in a row.1
To protect our policyholders, The Hartford has added Identity Protection Support, provided by Trilegiant Corporation, to all Business Travel Accident policies at no additional charge. All eligible employees are covered 24/7 – even while at home!
Recovering your identity can be overwhelming as well as costly, but the Hartford’s Identity Protection Support Service will provide the necessary assistance to cover all of the groundwork. Our Identity Protection Support Service offers an array of identity fraud services to help victims restore their identity.
Benefits Include:
- A toll-free number for professional fraud support 24 hours a day.
- Access to a certified personal caseworker who follows the case until it is resolved.
- Overnight delivery of a personalized fraud resolution kit with instructions and resources for identity theft victims.
- Access to emergency cash, travel planning, and message relay services.
Trilegiant will assist in:
- Contacting the three major credit reporting agencies to put a fraud alert on your credit files.
- Notifying any companies where you maintain accounts that are affected by fraud.
- Filing disputes regarding any inaccurate information in your credit report with the appropriate credit reporting agencies.
- Alerting the United States Postal Service should you suspect someone has filed a change of address for you or has used the mail system to commit theft.
- Contacting your local bank if you believe your checks have been stolen or forged.
- Alerting the Social Security Administration if you suspect that someone has fraudulently used your Social Security number.
- Contacting the Securities and Exchange Commission if you have reason to believe your investments were tampered with.
- Notifying the Internal Revenue Service if you suspect the identity theft is somehow connected to a tax violation.
