How to Protect Yourself From Identity Theft
Order a copy of your credit report once a year from each of the three national credit-reporting agencies (TransUnion, Experian, and Equifax) to check for inaccuracies and fraudulent use of your accounts. Monitoring your credit card statements and your credit report are the most important steps you can take to safeguard your credit identity.
