AIG, Identity Theft 911 Team Up to Fight Identity Theft

SAN FRANCISCO--Identity Theft 911, a leading provider of identity theft education, defense, and resolution services, and AIG Affinity Group Services, a division of AIG, the world's leading international insurance and financial services organization, are working together to help individual consumers, enterprise customers, and financial institutions to deal with the growing problem of identity theft.

Nearly 10 million Americans became victims of identity theft last year, according to the Federal Trade Commission -- a 41 percent increase over the year before -- making identity theft the fastest growing crime in the U.S. Victims of this crime quickly discover that restoring their name and good credit is a complex, time-consuming, and expensive process.

In response to this crisis, AIG Affinity Group Services has developed a product, available through Identity Theft 911, that provides personal identity coverage.  The AIG Personal Internet and Identity Coverage provides expert assistance and up to $25,000 in coverage for financial relief for identity restoration costs, legal defense expenses, and lost wages (for up to four weeks at up to $500 per week), with a zero deductible.
