Steuben Trust Company

An identity thief only needs to get your name, address, bank or credit card account numbers or your Social Security number, to take over your identity. The thief can then change your address, open new accounts at financial institutions and credit card companies in your name, running up enormous credit card balances and causing havoc with your good name and credit rating.

Here are a few pointers to help you avoid becoming a victim:

Do not reveal personal identification unless you know how they will be used or shared.
Deposit outgoing mail at the post office and remove delivered mail immediately.
Carry only the identification and bank/credit cards you actually need.
Do not give out personal data over the phone, through the mail or on the Internet unless you have initiated the contact.
Shred or tear up your charge receipts, credit cards solicitations, expired cards, statements, checks or other sensitive personal information.
Give your Social Security number only when absolutely necessary. Ask to use other identification.
