Mortgage Fraud

Providing a Private Label ID Theft Service

By Bonnie Sinnock

Fidelity National Information Services has introduced ID Protection Service, a program financial institutions can brand as their own to offer their customers protection against the risk of identity theft. The service includes constant monitoring of the subscriber's credit report, e-mail alerts of any changes, up to $25,000 in identity theft insurance and fully managed resolution services for victims.

Institutions that opt for ID Protection Service incur no installation costs, but can earn new revenue from subscribers. Fidelity provides all the tools necessary for financial institutions to offer an identity theft solution that includes system maintenance, customer support and complete marketing templates that allow the institution to brand the service as their own. Among companies beta testing the service is IndyMac Bank.

ID Protection Service is available "for about half the cost of other identity protection service," and goes further than most competing services, which give subscribers who have had their identities stolen a kit meant to guide them through the process of clearing their credit, Fidelity said. ID Protection Service, in contrast, provides identity theft specialists.
