News From MCAA
MCAA Member Benefit: Save With Lifelock
The Mason Contractors Associa�tion of America (MCAA) has part�nered with LifeLock, an identity theft protection company.
Identity theft is more than a stolen credit card number. A lot of people think their credit card company gives them identity theft protection. Sure, they protect you against fraud with your card, but identity theft is a lot more than that.
LifeLock watches out for you in ways your credit card company, alone, simply can't. What if a criminal gets a car loan in your name? Or even a mortgage? That can be more dangerous than a stolen credit card number and a spree at the mall. The patented LifeLock Identity Alert System can monitor for suspicious activity and send alerts iffraudulent ac�tivity is detected. Rest easier knowing you have protection from identity fraud
