With college comes an exciting new chapter to your life. New friends, a new home and a new sense of independence. But with that independence come risks. College provides a sense of freedom and if you aren't careful that freedom could lead to dangers, ones you may not necessarily even think of.
That's why TrustedID has reached out to college students, offering their services to protect you against identity theft, the #1 crime in America to date. Over 15 million Americans are affected by identity theft every year, losing an average of $3,000 per incident. With applications asking for your social security number and other personal information, we caught up with Chief Marketing Officer Lyn Chitow Oakes to get her opinion how college hopefuls can avoid identity theft, and how TrustedID can help.
