Protect Yourself From ID Theft & Credit Fraud

All of your personal information is for sale, as disturbing as it sounds, it's true. According To The U.S. Secret Service, “criminals can also obtain personal information through motor vehicle, property deed and court case data such as, unlisted telephone numbers and social security numbers. This information is made available to brokers, who in turn sell it to interested parties. While, most of this information has always been in the public record, access to it has been limited to those individuals who are familiar with complicated county court indices. Now that this information can be found on the internet, anyone with a computer and internet access can readily obtain this information. Thus, information previously not commonly available to the criminal element is now merely a keystroke away.”

Protect Yourself From ID Theft and Credit Fraud

  • Shred all bills and expired credit cards before throwing them away
  • Keep accurate records
  • Review your statements thoroughly
  • Know your billing cycles and call if a statement is late
  • Obtain a copy of your free credit report.

    Victims of Identity Theft and Credit Fraud

  • Immediately place a security statement on your credit reports
  • File a police report
  • File an identity theft report with the Federal Trade Commission
  • Notify all of your creditors, lenders and banks
  • Notify all government agencies (social security, motor vehicles, etc.)
  • Obtain a copy of your credit report from all three credit bureaus

  • Credit Report Tip


    Check your credit report regularly for errors and fraud!

    Most people find out about errors and fraud in their credit report after applying and being denied for a mortgage, a credit card, an auto loan or lease and during a background check for an apartment or new employment position.
