What is Identity Theft?
If someone you do not know calls you, you should not reveal personal information over the phone.
Sometimes they will tell you that they are from a company that you know, but if they ask you for
information that they already have about you, you should take caution. Ask them to tell you something
they should know about you from your account to verify that they are who they say they are. Sometimes,
they will make it sound like you won something in an effort to get your information to send it to you.
Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. The same goes for email - you should never send
personal information like passwords, banking accounts, or social security numbers via email.
