You
should know that identity theft has become worse with the major problem
of shopping online. There are sammers that are setting up clone web
sites like the ones that are very popular to make purchases so that they
can fool you to enter your personal information.
You can also have
your personal information stolen by not disposing of bank statements and
other pieces of mail properly. You need to shred anything that has
your personal account information and social security number
immediately. This will help protect your identity and your good name as
well.
Any woman that knows that it is very scary to have
your purse stolen. This is going to cause a dreaded nightmare. You will
end up losing your money and all of the things that are in it. You
will have to get all of your personal information cards cancelled or
replaced.
You will have to have your debit account closed or changed.
You do not want your bank account to be completely emptied by someone
that has your debit card number. If you do not freeze your accounts and
stop this from happening you will be broke.
The other important things
that you will need to do are to file a report with the police and place
an initial fraud report on your " credit " report. You
will be taking a chance anytime that you give your personal information
on the phone or Internet.
Before you enter your personal information
like your credit card number to make a purchase, make sure that
you check the web address to be sure that you are on the companies
official web site instead of a fake clone with the same appearance but
with a very wrong address.
This is something that is often not taken
into consideration and many thieves have exploited this issue too many
times. If you see this happening, you should report the fake site to
the official site and this can help to prevent any other person from
fraud by this company.
This is going to help save your own credit and keep you save from anyone that is looking to take over your identity.
The
right thing to do id you feel that you are a victim of identity fraud
is to get an very accurate credit report and look for the activity that
you are sure of that is not yours. In the event that you do find a new
account is open or activity is not anything that you did contact the
companies and try to get the signatures that was made by the thief.
The
faster that you do this means that you will find it easier to keep your
credit report safe and unharmed. Make sure that you are taking note of
every action that you take and make sure that you are asking many
questions about your credit score to make sure that is all correct as it
should be.
