| Protect Your Identity Without Using A Shredder
|
|
Protect Your Identity Without Using A Shredder. Save time and money by not shredding mail. The shredder costs money and the shredding can take quite a bit of time. But I don't want anyone to be able to get bank account numbers. . .

It always happens to the other person, right? That's what I thought, until this summer. My finances use to be so simple. Now I find myself jumping through hoops, trying to get bank and credit card fraud straightened out.

| Shred Financial Papers Before Discarding
|
|
Invest in a paper shredder and shred all of your financial papers, receipts, etc. before you throw them away. There is too much identity theft out there and if they are shredded, no one can get your information.

| Identity Theft and Your Trash
|
|
Beware if anyone is going thru your trash. I know a lady who isn't at home much during the daytime. One day the UPS man showed up at her house with a whole truckload of packages for her. When she insisted that she'd not ordered anything, he said, "well, they're all addressed to you".

| Don't Print Social Security Number on Checks
|
|
With all the identity theft that goes on it is a smart thing to keep your Social Security numbers off of your checks. Also, the state in which we live will use your social security number as your driver's license number unless you ask them to do differently.

| More Tips to Avoid Identity Theft
|
|
Be safe, don't carry a purse. Use your pockets. Organize your multi-pocket jeans and slacks. Most women are wearing slacks or jeans now. Only buy slacks with deep pockets and eliminate carrying a purse. After all men carry their wallet on their person which is much safer!
