Things like this happen and it sucks, and I hope she gets some kind of compensation or has insurance that will rebuild while going after the criminal and anyone involved. That being said, this crime is not as common as some are making it out to be. Companies like Life-Lock and various other legal scams to trick old/non-Internet savvy people out of their money have been hyping this up recently to sell a service that “protects” you from this happening.

It was really annoying the shit out of me when Bob Cesca was advertising for one of these companies on his podcast for awhile.

Also, never use Life Lock or any similar service. Just go to the 3 credit bureaus and lock down your credit reports. That takes care of 99% of all problems like this and it’s free.

Don’t use Life-Locks sibling products either: Norton Antivirus or Norton 360. They bitcoin mine when your PC is “idle”, making it very not idle anymore and sucking up a lot of power.
