Question: Somebody stole my credit card number and charged thousands of dollars. Why didnt LifeLock alert me?
"To put it bluntly, LifeLock identity theft protection does not alert you about credit or debit card fraud. We have two great reasons for this..."
I'm not sure how LifeLock would know when it was you spending on your own or someone else. I think that means they would have to alert you after you engaged in any kind of commerce with your card.
boy my cc company knew my spending patterns and caught the fraud within hours.
I was simply taking their advertising at face value.
Their ads imply that they can do it, so they should be doing it (or begin to advertise more honestly).
The truth is that all they really do is bill you.
