Am I at Risk?

• Do you use your credit card?
• Have you moved house recently?
• Do you put your phone bill straight into the bin?

You could be at risk of someone stealing your identity!

Sometimes all it takes for someone to start stealing your identity is to get a few personal details from your phone bill in the rubbish bin. You could also be more vulnerable than you might think each time your hand over our credit card, or move to a new address, or simply where you’re sharing information online.

Once they’ve got your information, thieves may be able to open bank accounts or apply for credit cards, loans, passports or drivers licences in your name. Unfortunately for many victims, the first sign that their identity has been stolen is often being declined for credit, or having deceived creditors banging on the door.
