BEFORE YOU BUY

A few things worth knowing.

Help with your purchase
What exactly am I buying?
A self-guided digital publication and companion PDF tools. You follow the steps and contact the relevant institutions yourself. This is not a recovery service or legal representation.
Is this for the United States?
Yes. The guide focuses on U.S. consumer identity-theft procedures and federal rules, with state-specific and professional handoffs where needed. It is not a 50-state legal manual.
Does it guarantee that I will recover money or repair every record?
No. Outcomes depend on the facts, available evidence, applicable rules and recipient decisions. A report or request does not guarantee a correction, refund or investigation.
Which kinds of identity misuse does it cover?
Credit accounts and reports, existing bank and card accounts, specialty consumer reports, tax and employment issues, benefits, medical records and claims, children’s identities, household misuse and stolen documents.
What files are included?
The 57-page main guide, three-page Quick Start, 12-page Recovery Toolkit, six-page Worked Example and 15-page Copy-and-Paste Messages are each supplied in A4 and US Letter. A two-page Start Here PDF is included once. The ZIP contains 11 PDFs.
Can I type into the worksheets?
Yes. Each Recovery Toolkit has 169 standard PDF form fields. Use a compatible reader, save a working copy and test saving and reopening it. The other PDFs are reading and copy-and-paste documents, not fillable forms.
Can I print the pack?
Yes. Choose the A4 or US Letter folder that matches your paper. The two folders contain the same content in different page sizes.
Can I use the pack offline?
Yes. Download and save the PDFs to read them offline, print the checklists and keep a local working copy of the toolkit. Contacting institutions and opening source links requires the relevant online, phone or mail channel.
Why pay when official identity-theft reporting is free?
Government reporting and core credit freezes are free. This purchase is for an independent, organized guide, route selection, checklists, fillable tracking sheets, examples and adaptable messages. It does not sell government access.
Can I use it for a child or another person?
It includes guidance for a child’s identity and authorized representatives. Use the recipient’s parent, guardian or representative process and provide the authority evidence it requires. Do not impersonate the person you assist.
What is not included?
Hands-on recovery, report filing, monitoring, insurance, legal or medical advice, guaranteed refunds, credit-repair services, forensic investigation and business/EIN fraud handling are not included. Court filings and specialist matters require separate qualified help.
Is this a one-time purchase, and are there other costs?
Yes, this is a one-time purchase. Optional printing, tracked postage, replacement documents or professional assistance can cost extra. The guide does not require purchasing a monitoring plan.
What is the refund policy?
Customers may request a refund within 14 days of purchase by emailing support@rescueplaybooks.com with their order reference and a short description of the issue. Approved refunds are returned to the original payment method. This voluntary guarantee does not limit mandatory consumer rights. Refund Policy
What should I do if I cannot find or open my download?
Use the purchase-support contact shown on your order receipt and provide your order number and purchase email. Check your receipt and spam folder first. Do not send identity documents, SSNs, bank statements, passwords or recovery codes to RescuePlaybooks.
