Social Security

Many people think credit card fraud doesn’t occur this way, but it does. And, it does quite often. Safeguard your Social Security number and only use it when it’s absolutely necessary.

Criminals can easily apply for credit cards in your name with your Social Security number, even if they don’t have DOB or other information. Your Social Security number is one of the most important pieces of personal information that needs to be protected in order to avoid credit card fraud.
