SCAMS
According to the National Consumers League’s National Fraud Information Center, nearly a third of all victims of telemarketing fraud are aged 60 and older. Many victims don’t realize that the “salesperson” on the phone is trying to steal their money. It is illegal for companies that operate contests or sweepstakes to ask you to pay to enter or claim your prize or to suggest that buying something will increase your odds of winning. It is illegal for telemarketers to ask for a fee upfront to help you get a loan if they guarantee or strongly imply that the loan will be made.
Reduce the number of unwanted calls and deal effectively with telemarketers:• Avoid getting on the “sucker
list.” Don’t fill out contest forms at fairs or malls.
• Screen your calls, use an answering machine or caller ID.
• Know who you’re dealing with.• If you have an account with a
company, tell them that you don’t want your information on a market list.
IDENTITY THEFT
You can’t protect yourself completely from identity thieves, but you can take steps to keep your personal information more secure when you’re at home, at work, and on the go.
Account InformationIf someone contacts you claiming to be from a business that already has your account number but is requesting it again, be suspicious. If you are considering doing business with an unfamiliar company, check the complaint records with your state and local consumer protection agency and Better Business Bureau.
ATM, Credit, and Debit CardsCarry only those that you plan to use. If there are accounts you don’t use anymore, close them. Memorize your PIN numbers and don’t write them down where someone may find them.
Bills, Bank Statements, and Other RecordsDon’t leave bills, statements and other personal records around in plain sight. Keep important documents in a locked file cabinet. Shred information you don’t need to keep.
Credit ReportsCheck your credit report once a year to make sure there are no accounts on it that you never opened.
MailRemove incoming mail from your mailbox promptly. Send bill payment from the post office or public mailbox, not from home. If you are going to be away, ask the post office to hold your mail.
Online PaymentsLook for clues about security when providing account numbers online. Your browser may also show that your information is encrypted or scrambled. See what the website says about how your information is safeguarded.
Social Security NumberDon’t give your social security number unless it is needed to apply for credit, open a bank account, go to work for someone, or for some other legitimate purpose. Never have it printed or write it yourself on checks.
Wallets and PursesDon’t tempt crooks by leaving your wallet or purse in plain sight in your house or car. Don’t leave your wallet loose in your back pocket or your purse hanging from a chair at a restaurant or other public place. Use purses that close securely.
