Identity theft

Identity theft is a growing concern for many people. Seniors too often fall prey to scams. There are many ways to insure protection by technological means. But the easiest way to get your identity stolen is by someone taking a purse or wallet. Be sure to carry only the cards you need, and leave cards like your social security cards at home.
When shopping online your information might pass through unsecured sites, be sure you are using a secure site. Monitoring your checking and credit card statements is an easy way to catch a theft before too much damage is done.
