I signed up for Identity Guard's "Essentials" package (their basic protection) through Comcast. Comcast gives away the basic package to their customers as a value-added service. I signed up and just forgot about it. About a year later I get an email from Identity Guard telling me they had noticed some unusual activity on my credit report. What had happened was someone had gained access to my Debit Card info and signed up online for an account at Walmart. They had ordered a bunch of items and had them shipped to another state. Since I had not opened a Walmart account, I was able to nip this ID theft episode in the bud. The feature that caught the thief is credit monitoring. I highly recommend this service. I don't know how much it costs, sorry! I get it for free through Comcast like I mentioned. But do check out their web site, and consider this company to keep your credit score safe, and identity theft away from your family.
In summary, I would recommend Identity Guard to a friend.
