I submit about 20 press releases a year, not a lot compared to other major businesses. Whenever I put one on my service provider website, BusinessWire, someone calls me and sends an e-mail, even if it is a very simple statement. Yesterday, I missed one punctuation mark, and they called me to verify its integrity. I don't understand how identity theft can circumvent such process. Even when I had to change the contact information on my account during my vacation, they still called me. I completely removed my contact information from the account profile, not on hold, not dual contact, but I gave the contact information of someone else in my company. They still contacted me. I briefly considered PRWeb before, now I'm glad that I didn't make the move.

LOL, "Even with reasonable safeguards identity theft occurs, on occasion, across all of the major wire services." Sorry, just the half ass ones like prweb let obvious fakes through.
