Safeguard your personal data by implementing simple yet effective strategies. Start by shredding credit card offers and using a locked mailbox for sensitive correspondence. Avoid mailing envelopes from home; instead, use post office services. Remove your information from telephone directories, and enhance your online security by installing a firewall and keeping your virus protection software updated. Be wary of phishing emails and opt for credit cards over debit cards during transactions. Always cover your PIN while entering it, as thieves could be lurking nearby.
