Insurance companies and other financial companies have discovered a new source of income. They are taking advantage of the growing consumer concern regarding identity theft. Identity theft claims approximately 10 million victims per year according to estimates by the Federal Trade Commission and Javelin Research.

Some companies even promise to help you through the process with advice, guidance and forms.
