PROTECTING MY LOVED ONES AND LEGACY

According to AARP, it can take six months for financial institutions, credit-reporting bureaus and the Social Security Administration to receive, share or register death records. When we consider that cybercrime has become more profitable than the drug trade and with widely available funeral announcements, this creates the perfect scenario for criminals to strike. Your digital estate is a prime target for identity theft and other types of financial and digital theft. It has become imperative that you start to plan properly for your digital death.

Did you know that according to AARP, close to 800,000 deceased individuals are targeted for identity theft annually? That's almost 2,200 a day. With a name, address and birth date, criminals can purchase a Social Security number for as little as $10. Stealing the identity of the deceased is called ghosting, and you can learn more about it here.

Take a moment and think about all the financial, personal, sensitive or private information that you may have on your device(s):

• Credit cards
• Tax documents
• Social Security numbers (for all family members, likely including yours)
• Medical records (for all family members, likely including yours)
• Banking information
• Retirement information
• Investment information
• Private conversations
• Private and personal data
• Private location data

Your unaccounted for digital footprint can cause your loved ones tremendous burden, stress and expense, all while leaving your entire life and legacy forever tarnished. "I am dead, why should I care, what is the worst that can happen?":

• Hacked: Within 24 hours of death, your device(s) can be hacked leading to identity theft, your bank and financial accounts being drained and stolen credit card numbers.
• Legacy: Protecting your legacy can be difficult. You could have items that you do not even realize on your devices, and without context, could forever change how your loved ones, colleagues and those important to you will remember you.
• Work files: You have a responsibility to make sure your sensitive work files are securely transferred and cleaned.

TRANSFERRING MY DIGITAL ESTATE

Organize your digital estate now, or your digital and offline life could be frozen for 18 months or more in probate, or even worse, never found.

If you have ever lost a loved one, you may have gone through the process of estate planning or settling their estate.

Estate planning can make things easier for your loved ones after you pass. You can consider how you would like each part of your life settled - accounts and debts, property, funeral arrangements, etc. Your digital property is no different.

As technology has become a main component to most aspects of our lives, we are constantly building a digital footprint. Consider all the different aspects of your daily digital life:

• Email accounts
• Social media accounts
• Important documents
• Photos
• Music
• Spreadsheets
• Medical files
• Cryptocurrency files
• Subscription information
• Financial information
• Investments
• Digital projects
• Family Recipes

Each different area has different rules, processes and requirements for your loved one to be able to access (if even possible) your accounts when you are gone. Your assets, including money, could be frozen for 18 months or longer while you are going through the probate process. Not only is this incredibly frustrating for your loved ones during this difficult time, they will also incur significant expense via the court and lawyers. Setting up your Info Vault today can ensure your loved ones do not have additional hassles and expenses, and enjoy the peace of mind knowing that everything you want them to find, will be found.
