and carted off your desk.
Here are a few ways to protect you from business and personal identity theft.
· Never give out your first name, last name, business name, email address, account passwords, credit card numbers, bank account information, PIN number, social security
number, or driver's license number.
· Change your online account passwords every 30 days. Believe it or not, a hacker who steals your personal information can often guess your online account passwords in about two minutes. If your Charles Schwab online account password is your birthday or the name of your first born or family pet, count on a hacker cracking that code faster than you can say SOpen Sesame.
· Never provide personal information in response to an email or telephone call. Just because someone calls and says they are from Dunn & Bradstreet and need to confirm
Your business information does not mean they are really from Dunn & Bradstreet.
· Never give
Your business credit card number over the phone to place an order with someone who has called you unsolicited. If you are interested in what they are selling get their number, check out thei.company, then call them back to place the order.
If you think that you have become the victim of identity theft or think someone is trying to steal your identity or personal information"
