    1. Freeze your credit reports at the big 3 reporting agencies immediately!
    2. Check your credit weekly, it's free.
    3. Be vigilant about unexpected emails and financial activity.
    4. The most important: Do not go to random websites that claim to help to see if you get hacked.
    just follow steps 1-3.

    Im a victim of full identity theft that occurred some years back. It was the worse thing I’ve ever been through. Thankfully, by God’s grace, I didn’t lose anything. The credit freeze with the 3 major credit bureaus is a must. Also, your local Police Department can give you booklet giving you step by step measures to take. My advice is to keep good records of your charges, expenditures, etc. and monitor everything. We live in a very unsafe world but with God’s help, we will make it. Thank you for your video Boyd. VERY good advice.

    • @dailypearls
      @dailypearls 2 месяца назад +2

      My thoughts too. I believe not because this keeps happening and all they want to give is credit monitoring. You would think a breach of this nature would trigger the 3 credit monitoring companies to put an automatic freeze then if you did not want the freeze remove. The credit monitoring companies made our SSN valuable by requiring it to prove you are credit worthy when SSN was not designed for that purpose.

      Place a security freeze on your credit report that's in Transunion, Equifax and Experience. It's for free no cost. Also, change your passwords frequently for emails, online bank accounts, utility online accounts etc. Don't put too much info about yourself on social media sites. That's the first place scammers go.
