Free identity theft services

If you’re covered by the County’s accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) or long-term disability (LTD) insurance in 2012, you will be eligible for free identify theft services through CIGNA, which administers AD&D and LTD for the county. If you cover your dependents under your supplemental AD&D insurance in 2012, they will also be eligible.

Identity theft occurs when an unauthorized person uses your personal information—your name, Social Security number, bank or credit card number, or driver’s license number—for fraudulent use. CIGNA’s Identify Theft Program provides services to help you resolve critical identity theft issues if they occur.

If you suspect that you might be a victim of identify theft, all you will have to do is call 1-888-226-4567, beginning Jan. 1, 2012, to talk to one of the personal case managers. You don’t have to sign up for this program in advance.
