It's staggering how many ways your identity can be stolen:
A hacker could break into your accounts (especially if they have weak passwords); A thief could see you enter a password at an ATM, gas pump, or on your phone; You could lose a credit card… or your whole wallet; Your financial and personal data could be taken from public Wi-Fi; You may be duped by a phishing email; A deceptive text could get you to divulge information (known as SMiShing); A hacker could break into a database your info is in, such as the Equifax credit bureau hack that affected nearly 150 million Americans [LINK]; Your home could be burgled, along with sensitive data; You may unknowingly link up to a fake Wi-Fi hotspot; Someone may steal your mail containing valuable info; You may visit an unsecure website on your phone or computer; A skimming device could be installed at the ATM or gas pump; Malicious software could be installed on your computer; A thief may pickpocket your phone or wallet; A friend or family member you trust may take your identity; A dumpster diver may go through your trash; A thief could reach out to your bank or other business and pretend to be you; Your data may be sold on the dark web.Scared yet?
This oh-so-connected world, which provides so many benefits, also makes it easier for crooks to open credit cards and charge items in our name or use our Social Security number to claim tax refunds they don't deserve. Millions of Americans were victims of identity theft last year. How many hours do you think it would take to straighten out such a mess? How long do you think it would take to get your legitimate refund if a thief has already claimed one for you? How would you like to prove to the government and the credit card companies that you truly are you, and that some crook you never met isn't you?
