Helping Victims Recover From ID Theft
MyTruston Receives 4 Out Of 5 Rating in PC Magazine Review
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (BUSINESSWIRE) – March 14, 2007 – Truston, a provider of identify theft prevention and recovery services, today announced MyTruston received a 4 out of 5 rating by PC Magazine.
MyTruston was praised for its step-by-step approach to detecting and recovering from the loss of private financial information, all without collecting users’ sensitive personal data such as credit cards or social security numbers. The review, published Feb. 26 on PCMag.com, also notes MyTruston’s effective methods of guiding users through detecting and solving personal security breaches.
“Truston is pleased to be recognized by PC Magazine, one of the industry’s most highly respected IT publications, with such a high rating,” said Tom Fragala, president and CEO of Truston. “This recognition showcases our commitment to making the prevention and recovery of identity theft a seamless and easy process. As a victim of identity theft, I have experienced the complicated, time-intensive process of recovering first-hand. MyTruston brings relief to individuals experiencing what can be an otherwise painful, frustrating experience.”
In the review, PC Magazine lead analyst Neil J. Rubenking pointed to MyTruston’s focus on solving issues with fraudulent charges on credit card and utility accounts, false ATM/debit cards, and phony credit and utility accounts. He praised MyTruston’s approach to further protecting users’ personal information and said the recovery process was “smooth and simple.”
“You don't give Truston any of your private information, a significant plus,” Rubenking wrote. “Your personal information stays with you. There's no opportunity for an identity-theft gang to score a coup by hacking your protection service, or for hackers to nab those card numbers while they're en route.”
Through the use of MyTruston’s free credit inspecting services and its premium recovery services, victims and potential victims are able to safeguard their good name. MyTruston is the only free credit inspecting service available today, helping members obtain free credit reports every four months, instead of charging the annual fee of $130 requested by most credit monitoring services.

This service manages recovery from a central location by handling a range of details including scheduling tasks, sending email reminders, and providing follow-up documents for download.
