Paris Hilton is just one of the a-list celebs whose home was burglarized this past year. But this isn’t the first time the hotel heiress has been victimized.
Everybody knows Paris Hilton…who she’s dating… even who she dressed up as for Halloween. But did you know she was also one of the millions of people who’ve fallen victim to identity theft?
Identity theft is when someone poses as you to gain access to new accounts or services// 10:23 everyone’s a risk to be a victim of identity theft
Todd Davis the ceo of Lifelock-- the industry leader in proactive identity theft protection says celebrities are an easy target for a lot of reasons
Challenge for celebs is we know so much about them . /18:00 //info is easily searchable on the web
That’s exactly what happened to Paris Hilton and a number of other celebs including Whitney Houston and Philadelphia eagles QB Donovan McNabb in august of 2007. That’s when some identity thieves allegedly used change of address forms and had all the celebrities’ mail diverted to a house in Philly. Using the information from the stolen mail, the address thieves were then able to order checks and credit cards in the stars’ names.
While identity theft can never be 100% prevented, Todd Davis explains there are some important steps you can take to protect yourself, including ordering a copy of your credit report, always using a secure website, and being careful what information you put on social media sites.
Mr. Davis also suggests you call Lifelock, where their staff is committed to protecting your good name. 24/7. Now aren’t you glad you’re not as famous as Paris? For celebtv.com, I’m Kelli Zink.
paris hilton is not beautiful in any way. i dont even know and i dont wanna care who she dates cuz they’re all flings. she’s a hooker. why do guys get interested anywayz? she dont have any ass.
ok if a person come up to a cashier and hand them a credit card owned by paris hilton but stolen. Either the cashier was stupid as hell or the person used the card online. Secondly lol who wanna steal paris hiltons idenity i mean cmon shame on the crook u can do better.
Good enuf for her. She is a little slutty bitch that sleeps around with every hot guy she can find.I bet you if she found a really hot boy that is like half her age she would probably get charged with child malesstashon.Right.
