Description
Did you know that protecting your identity is largely in your own hands?
The number of identity fraud victims increased by eight percent in 2017. Imposters and scammers have successfully manipulated and changed tactics to victimize over 1 million more consumers in the US. BBB holds Secure Your ID Day to help prevent records from falling into thieves’ hands.
So here’s the first rule: If you don’t need it, shred it – responsibly.
BBB is here to help with Secure Your ID Day.
On Saturday, April 27, 2019, BBBs across North America will host this helpful identity theft prevention event featuring FREE on-site shredding, electronic recycling, plus tips to protect your identity.
Another event will be held in the fall on Saturday, October 19, 2019.
