LifeLock used to secretly track ex-wife's financial moves

[vanillabean]

"A Gilbert, Ariz., woman says her ex-husband used LifeLock's credit-monitoring systems to create an account in her name and secretly track her every financial move since their separation two years ago.

Suzanna Quintana, 47,says that when she applied for credit cards, leased a car, signed a cellphone contract and opened a bank account, her ex-husband received emails and alerts detailing the activity."

If you can, why not.

Dude sounds like a controlling jack***, can't imagine why things didn't work out.

Heard it on the local news. Best thing to do is freeze your CA's. Easy and cheap. Not sure why more people don't do it.

Dude was crafty as h*ll. Scary!

What's even scarier is that the company ignored her when she tried to bring it to their attention. It shouldn't take too long to receive help for something like that. She's lucky her son discovered what his dad was doing.

Another first for Gilbert, AZ.  Their police department argues that they were the first to utilize cell phone tracking in the U.S.

How can this be? Is this not an invasion of the person's private affairs? Seems like there could be a problem for LifeLock's program? Some where I read that each one of our credit lives is legally separate from the others. Anotherwords my partner's credit life (unless joint) is their business (I don't have to like it but it is). Also, in he world of medical files it is the same thing. FInd this very confusing?

He probably had enough information to sign up as her and pretend that she was receiving the information.  It's not like it's a face-to-face meeting.
