by a shredder and put it to use with anything you get from any credit card company. Maintain one that you are happy with and keep a weary eye on any activity on it (by you or others.)

5. We have one in the garage |
|
and we put everything in it that has our name or an account number or any identifiable data on it. I empty it at least twice a week. I am proudly anal when it comes to identity theft and not ODing on plastic.

4. I cancelled one I hadn't used for two years- I went through hell to do it! |
|
The guy kept asking me "what it would take to keep me as a customer"? I finally had to tell him I had just inherited a million bucks (not true) so I would no longer need credit.
