id theft

ID Theft
1.     They get your information by mugging you. Or making a purchase and they take your credit card information.
2.     If you are a victim of identity theft you should call credit card companies and cancel your credit cards. Have them put a fraud alert on. Then call local police station so that you can report a crime. Contact the ftc.
3.     To protect yourself make sure you know what you carry around in your wallet so that you know what they could have. Also be careful of throwing you personal information in the trash and do not give out personal information on the phone or online if you do not know what it is for.
