Credit Sesame Offers JP Morgan Chase Data Breach Customers Free Credit Monitoring & Identity Protection at No Cost

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Oct. 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Credit Sesame, the only company that allows millions of consumers to access, monitor and  manage their credit, improve their finances and protect their credit and identity, all in one place for free, today extends its free credit and identity protection services to JP Morgan Chase data breach victims at no cost. The free service offers the 76 million consumers whose personal information was compromised a proactive way to stay on top of their credit and finances. Credit Sesame's free service helps consumers all year round with no sign-up or termination deadlines or credit cards needed.

To get Credit Sesame's free service including your free credit score, free credit monitoring and free identity protection, visit CreditSesame.com/Chase-Breach-Victims.

The free identity protection service offers peace of mind for all consumers affected by the recent data breaches. By signing up with Credit Sesame, in just a few minutes, consumers will automatically be covered with $50,000 of identify theft insurance and immediate access to certified identity restoration specialists in the event that one's identity is stolen.

"No information is valueless to hackers and we should not be complacent in thinking that everything is OK because only things like names, addresses or email addresses were exposed," said Neal O'Farrell, Security and ID Theft Expert at Credit Sesame. "Hackers can connect the dots and use the information to get an even clearer picture about a consumer, their habits and their life. The data can also be used in phishing email scams or to hack into an email account and gain access to years of information about a person's life."

In addition to identity protection, consumers also have access to their free credit score and credit monitoring for a complete 360-degree view of their personal credit and debt situation. Now all Chase data breach victims can access and monitor their credit, learn about potential identity theft quickly and have access to immediate assistance, all for free.

The service is accessible online via desktop and mobile devices. Consumers can sign up for the service in as little as 90 seconds.
