It provides reimbursement to crime victims for the cost of restoring their identity and repairing credit reports. Mine is included in my renter's insurance. A little extra security for situations like this. You may also want to consider purchasing identity theft insurance.

Want to point out one thing here when using debit verses credit cards. If you suspect your debit card was fraudulently used, you have 3 days to dispute the transaction (on PIN based transactions). If used like a credit card, different rules apply and you have 30 days. However, in the end, it depends on the bank. If someone has stolen your card and PIN and you did not know about for a week, your bank may be nice and cover your losses past 3 days. Very good article.

That way, I can just go to one place and get all the information that I need and there's no need to worry about forgetting to call one company and what not.

Most banks will reimburse you if you DO happen to get nailed by fraud, but it's better to freeze the account before that happens. The first thing I would do is call my bank and freeze my accounts.
