One out of every ten Americans will become a victim of identity theft. Will you be one of them?

The following are ways to reduce your risk of becoming a victim.

  • Don’t carry your social security card in your wallet.
  • Don’t share your Social Security number or other personal information over the phone, email, or internet with strangers
  • Shred any personal information or mail you receive…especially credit card offers.
  • Consider investing in a credit monitoring product, like our United Financial IDProtect program.  Click here for more information.
