What should I do to protect myself from identity theft or fraud?
CAMC Federal Credit Union works hard to keep your information secure. You can also help by following these tips to protect your information:
-
Store personal information in a safe place. Tear up or shred old receipts and account statements before throwing away.
-
Protect your personal identification numbers (PINs) and other passwords. Do not share them with anyone.
-
Review account statements and billings carefully to ensure the information is accurate.
-
Guard your mail from theft by depositing bill payments directly at the post office instead of leaving them in the mailbox. Promptly remove all incoming mail.
-
Subscribe to a service that monitors unauthorized account activity, such as AlertMe.
If you believe you have been the victim of fraud or identity theft take immediate action.
-
Contact your financial institution or creditors for any accounts that may be affected by fraud to have accounts or credit/debit cards suspended from use.
