  • Atlanta, GA (1888PressRelease) July 13, 2011 - The offbeat TV and social media effort revolves around a half-cop, half-accountant character that isn't afraid to mix it up while educating the public on the importance of credit monitoring and identity protection. The over-the-top character munches on half-donut, half-bagels, adorns a bulletproof vest with pocket protector, and even threatens to calcutaze viewers with his half-calculator and half-Taser - all in the name of credit monitoring and identity protection.

    The national TV buy and social media push helped Equifax reach its quarterly sales goals. And in just two weeks, Edwin grabbed nearly 8,000 followers on Facebook. The TV spots have been featured in Shoot Magazine, Bestads.com and more.
