Personal information and Social Security number (SSN) alerts: If your registered phone numbers, passport numbers, driver's license information, SSNs, or health insurance IDs are found online, you'll receive an alert. Identity monitoring: Alerts you when Aura finds that your identity, such as past addresses, SSN, or security questions, was used for verification during transactions like opening bank accounts or wire transfers. Home title monitoring: Notifies you if Aura finds unauthorized changes are made to your property title, such as adding co-owners or removing your name. Criminal and court records monitoring: Sends alerts if Aura finds your identity is used in criminal activities, traffic violations, or appears on sex offender registries. Financial transaction monitoring: Tracks your credit cards, bank accounts, 401(k), and investment accounts, alerting you to transactions over thresholds you set. Bank account monitoring: Alerts you if Aura finds someone attempted to change your bank account details or add new account holders. Credit monitoring: Besides near-real-time alerts about new credit accounts, you also receive notifications if a creditor tries to locate you or logs a debt settlement."

However, Aura may not catch all forms of fraudulent activity. As a precaution, you should actively monitor your bank statements to check for unfamiliar charges on your checking or savings accounts, including unexpected ATM withdrawals, online purchases, or new automatic payments. You should also watch for unfamiliar bills or debt collection notices for accounts or services you didn't open, as recent debts may not immediately appear on credit reports. Be mindful of tax filing issues such as IRS rejection of your return because one has already been filed or calls asking for personal or financial information. Review medical statements and bills to confirm they only list treatments or prescriptions you actually received, since unexpected doctor visits, lab tests, or surgeries could indicate fraud. Finally, check your Social Security statement for incorrect income and watch for notices about benefits applications or denials, which may signal misuse of your SSN."

They are also worth it if you have been a victim of identity theft, since faster alerts and access to Aura's Expert Fraud Remediation team can help you limit future fraud. These services make sense if you have significant assets or many accounts, because protecting multiple accounts, retirement savings, or home equity might justify the extra cost. They are valuable if you want proactive monitoring, with alerts beyond just credit report changes that can help you spot fraud early. If you only need basic monitoring and you are on a tight budget, a free credit monitoring service may be more suitable."
