Identify Theft is real and can result in substantial problems in your personal and professional life. Recovery can be expensive and exhaustive. Some helpful tips include:

Shred personal data that you no longer need, envelopes, shipping labels, etc. Be sure to retain tax documents by adhering to the respective taxing authority retention laws/rules.

Be careful using a public wifi. You may wish to consider a virtual private network (VPN.)

Check all of your social media accounts to ensure your privacy ie. telephone numbers or other identifying information (date of birth).

Create strong passwords and you may not want to share the information with anyone. Perhaps consider using a “password keeper” to track the passwords - but REMEMBER, ensure the “password keeper” is secure.
