Eternal vigilance.Remember-if it looks or sounds too good to be true,it's probably a scam.Sadly,scams and frauds come in all sorts of shapes and sizes-and disguises.As far as identity fraud is concerned,invest in a shredding machine and use it regularly for all your personal correspondence-especially old bills and bank statements.

Always keep an eye on your card (don't let a restaurant server take it away). Don't use your card online in public locations (on library computers, on unsecured networks). Don't buy online unless it is from a trusted source with a HTTPS secured website. Don't email credit card numbers. Don't give your credit card numbers out to anyone over the phone. Sign the back of your card right away. Take advantage of a credit card with your photo, if your bank offers it.
