Frequently asked questions and answers

Find answers to commonly asked questions about cybersecurity and Dteckt's services.

How soon will I receive a notification after a booking incident occurs?

You should see a notification within 48 hours from the time a booking incident occurred.

What if I see bookings data that isn’t mine?

False matches in court records report can occur as a result of an individual having the same name and/or date of birth as you. This can usually be resolved by calling the relevant courthouse to make sure the records belong to another individual. If the courthouse confirms that the records in question relate to your identity – usually done by confirming your SSN or driver’s license number – and you did not commit the infraction, you may be a victim of identity theft. If you are concerned, please contact Dteckt at 240-823-4344 or at support@dteckt.com.

What time range does my initial Court Records and Bookings Monitoring report cover?

Your first Court Records Monitoring report includes court and bookings data from the past 10 years.

How soon will I receive a notification after a new court record is entered?

You should see a notification within a month from the date a new court record is entered.

What if I see court records in the report that aren’t mine?

False matches in court records report can occur because of an individual having the same name and/or date of birth as you. This can usually be resolved by calling the relevant courthouse to make sure the records belong to another individual. If the courthouse confirms that the records in question relate to your identity – usually done by confirming your SSN or driver’s license number – and you did not commit the infraction, you may be a victim of identity theft. If you are concerned, please contact Dteckt at 240-823-4344 or at support@dteckt.com.

What records does Court Records and Bookings Monitoring search for my personal information?

Court Records and Bookings Monitoring searches court records and bookings data sourced from the following places:

  1. Over 509 million criminal court records mapping to federal, state, city, and county level jurisdictions
  2. Over 60 million incarceration records spread across 2,100 police organizations covering over 70% of national bookings
  3. 99 million Department of Corrections (DOC) parole, probation, and incarceration records
  4. Over 4.9 million warrant records. 98 county, state and city level warrants reporting 664 of 3,248 counties in 50 states and Puerto Rico
  5. Over 9 million arrest records
  6. Over 330 thousand government records, such as Most Wanted and terrorist lists

Can I still become a victim of identity theft even though I am enrolled in Dark Web Monitoring?

Monitoring the Dark Web dramatically reduces your risk of identity theft by letting you know sooner if your personal information is compromised, and in turn enabling prevention or quick resolution of an identity theft incident. In addition to Dark Web Monitoring, you also have identity protection recovery services to help alleviate some of the financial burden of identity theft and guide you through the often confusing and difficult process. Unfortunately, no identity protection tool can prevent identity theft altogether.

Is the buying and selling of others’ personal information online illegal?

This activity is illegal in the United States, but other countries do not necessarily have the same laws as related to cybercrime. United States regulatory agencies have no jurisdiction to prosecute fraudsters acting on websites and chat rooms located in other countries.

What if the alert references only some of the personal information Dark Web is tracking?

Even if only some of your personal information has been detected by the Dark Web, it is recommended that you contact the appropriate institution to have your account information changed or change your account information yourself if possible - like updating the password to your email account. It is safe to assume that if some of your information is compromised, all of it is. You may also want to review a copy of your credit report to ensure that all the information that appears there is familiar to you.

What does it mean when I receive an alert?

Your Dark Web service tracks Internet activity for signs that the personal information you’ve asked us to monitor is being traded and/or sold online. This alert means that our surveillance technology has discovered information on the Internet that is a match to your monitored identity elements.

What time range does my initial Dark Web report cover?

Your first Dark Web report includes data from the previous 8 years. This means that Dark Web searches the prior 8 years of records it has collected for a match to the personal information you are monitoring.

Where does Dark Web data come from?

This data comes from Internet forums and websites, web pages, IRC channels, refined PII search engine queries, Twitter feeds, P2P sources, hidden and anonymous web services, malware samples, botnets, and torrent sources.

What time range does my initial Change of Address Monitoring report cover?

Your first report includes data from the past 3 months, including the current month.

What do I do if there is an address in the Change of Address Monitoring report that I don’t recognize?

If your report contains an address that is not familiar to you, there is probably an error in public records information. However, this could be an indication of identity theft. If you see unfamiliar information in Change of Address Monitoring, please contact Dteckt at 240-823-4344 or support@dteckt.com.

How long after I submit a change of address request will I receive an alert?

The USPS can take up to two weeks after the "effective date" to publish the address change. You will receive a notification once the change has been published.

Where does Change of Address Monitoring data come from?

Change of Address Monitoring reports only changes in address that have been processed through the United States Postal Service (USPS). Change of Address Monitoring does not track UPS or FedEx-only addresses or private mailboxes.

What time range does my initial Social Security Number Trace report cover?

Your first Social Security Number Trace report looks at data beginning from the date your SSN first became associated with credit header data. This could be as early as when you were born and issued an SSN.

What do I do if I see a name on the Social Security Number Trace report or alert that isn’t my current name?

It’s not uncommon to see alternate names on your report due to marriage, joint credit accounts and nicknames you may have used. However, if you are concerned, please contact Dteckt at 240-823-4344 or support@dteckt.com.

What do I do if an old address is incorrect in the Social Security Number Trace report?

It is not uncommon for address history dating back more than 5 years to contain errors. However, if the incorrect address is more recent, please contact Dteckt at 240-823-4344 or support@dteckt.com.

What do I do if there is a name or address in the Social Security Number Trace report that I don’t recognize?

If your report contains names and/or addresses that are not familiar to you, there is probably an error in credit header data. However, this could be an indication of identity theft. If you see unfamiliar information in your Social Security Number Trace report, please contact Dteckt at 240-823-4344 or support@dteckt.com.

What time range does my initial credit report cover?

Your credit report includes data beginning from the date your credit file was first established. This could span more than 25 years.

Why there may be a difference between my three scores?

Each credit-reporting agency generates a score derived from what is reported about you. A creditor may report to one, two or all three of the national credit bureaus. As a result, the information one credit bureau has may be different than another, resulting in a different credit score.

What should I do if I see a mistake on my credit report?

In some cases, the credit-reporting agency may commit errors on your report - the incorrect information may simply be a mistake. However, an error on your credit report could indicate that an identity theft event has occurred. If you see incorrect information on your credit report, please contact Dteckt at 240-823-4344 or at support@dteckt.com.
