Credit Card Safety

Here's some advice from an attorney that was passed along to me. Most of us already know it, but it's a good reminder:
Don't sign the back of your credit cards. Instead, put 'Photo ID Required'.

Photocopy both sides of your credit cards and driver's license. Keep your account numbers and 800-numbers handy in case you lose your wallet is
stolen.

If your wallet IS stolen, call the three national credit reporting organizations immediately to place a fraud alert on your name, and also call the Social Security fraud line.
