Who are you, really?

Here’s something new I stumbled upon last night. What if someone robbed you of your identity, what would you do? Remember what happened to Sandra Bullock’s character from the flick “The Net”?

From Lifelock.com you can take an online Identity Theft Quiz and see how great you are at risk of such crime. I took it myself and got a score of 47.7 meaning I am moderately at risk of identity theft.

I do not want to end up paranoid of becoming a victim of identity theft but it’s good to be reminded of the following:

Shred papers containing my personal information
Secure my bills and incoming mail (we should get a mailbox, really)
Be wary when leaving personal information at home where it can be easily viewed by others
Remove or blur credit card number when submitting receipts for reimbursement.

Lifelock is America’s #1 Identity Theft Prevention Program. You can also avail of the LifeLock promotion code to use when purchasing an annual membership to Lifelock where you can receive 30days Free and $21 off the annual subscription price or should you wish to pay monthly, a 10% discount off the subscription cost will be given to you.
