Frequently asked questions

  • IDX was built on the core value of ensuring the privacy of your personal, financial, and health information. We employ leading encryption and security technologies to ensure that every interaction you have with us is secure. Our U.S.-based team of experts and recovery advocates undergoes extensive training and is FCRA and HIPAA certified to ensure optimal security. Plus, we offer a 100% identity recovery guarantee or your money back. For all of these reasons and more, IDX is trusted by 40+ million members as well as Fortune 500 companies and major government agencies.

  • Identity theft is a crime that occurs when your personal identifying information (PII) is used by someone else without your consent. This information could include your name, Social Security number, address, date of birth, credit card, financial and medical account information, driver’s license, or online account information. Criminals are continually finding new ways to use this information for their own gain, and they're becoming better and better at stealing identities without detection for longer periods, thus increasing the potential harm to their victims.

  • Once an identity thief gains access to your personal information, the effects can range from annoying to life-altering. For example, the thief could damage your reputation by posting inappropriate content or even committing crimes in your name. They could make purchases, loans, or other transactions in your name, for which you could be held financially responsible. Unpaid bills could damage your credit rating, making it difficult for you to get a home, rental, auto, or college loan. If a background check reveals debts, crimes, or inappropriate web content posted by a thief, you could be turned down for a job. If your medical identity is stolen, you could even be denied medical services.

  • The first step is to enroll in IDX. You will receive automatic alerts if any suspicious activity is detected around any of the information we’re monitoring for you. You will also get recommendations on how to protect yourself from identity theft and fraud. If you have additional questions or think you may already be a victim of identity theft, you can always click the Help button on your dashboard and request assistance from the IDX Identity Recovery team.

  • Often, data that's been stolen or hacked from companies and organizations winds up for sale on the dark web, an anonymous layer of the web where cybercriminals operate. Bad actors can potentially buy the breached information and use it to commit identity theft or fraud. As part of your IDX membership, you'll have access to CyberScan, a proactive surveillance engine that automatically alerts you if your information has been detected on the dark web. Having this early warning can make all the difference in staying ahead of identity thieves.

  • Yes. Credit monitoring is part of your IDX membership; during the setup process, we will ask you only for information that is already available to the credit bureaus. This information is a security measure used only to confirm your identity.

  • Yes. Our U.S.-based recovery experts have helped to resolve thousands of cases of identity theft. Should you become a victim of identity theft, you will be assigned a personal recovery expert who will fight on your behalf (using limited power of attorney) to achieve full recovery of your identity, and can help answer any questions you might have during the process. Your assigned expert will be there for you from start to finish, and will save you the time and stress of attempting to resolve the issue on your own.

  • Yes. As part of your IDX membership, you'll have $1 million in insurance coverage. This coverage offers reimbursement for any eligible expenses (e.g., credit reports, legal fees for some civil suits, fees for refiling loan applications, etc.) related to the recovery process and any lost income (time off work) resulting from an identity theft incident.
