Keep all your bank info and bills and EVERYHING with information on it in a safe place, and if you are getting rid of something with info on it, you should just burn it.

shred personal documents
remove your social security number from cards
ask your home insurance company if they provide protection
don’t give out personal info over the phone
make sure to look for the “lock” on secure websites

1.Never take your social security card in your wallet
2.its more convenient to pay bills online..but its more secure to pay by mail or visit the company’s payment centre
3. Your bank will never email you to ask to confirm account information/ neither the IRS.
4.Install a proper Internet Security Software on your computer if u shop online or do banking online
5.clear all browser history after shopping on banking online
