Sign up with Life Lock
Unless you get the most expensive level of coverage, LifeLock won't do anything that you can't do for yourself, free.
You can cancel your own credit cards (if necessary) and put a Fraud Alert on your (credit) account.
Do it via any one of the "big 3" Equifax, Experian or Trans Union and they'll pass along the fraud alert to the other two, free.

oh8eleven is absolutely correct. my son had lifelock and transunion doing credit monitoring and had done some credit activity (applied for a car loan or credit card). Transunion reported the credit pull within minutes of the activity; lifelock didn’t alert him for over 24 hours.
