Identity Theft Protection Tips for Consumers
How can you prevent becoming a victim of identity theft? While no one can totally prevent this crime
from occurring, here are some positive steps to take which will decrease your risk.
1.
Carefully destroy papers you throw out. Be especially careful with those containing
sensitive or identifying information. Use your shredder for destroying documents.
2.
Check your credit reports at least once a year.
3.
Always guard your Social Security Number (SSN). Don't carry your Social Security Card
with you.
4.
Do not put your SSN or driver's license number on your personal checks.
5.
Guard all of your personal information. Never give your SSN to anyone unless they
have a good reason for needing it.
6.
Watch out for people who may try to eavesdrop to overhear the information you
give out verbally.
7.
Never provide information to telephone solicitors unless you have initiated the call.
8.
Immediately delete (and don't reply to) any suspicious email requests, especially if they
are asking for passwords or other unique, identifying information.
9.
Use a P.O. Box or locked mailbox for all mail correspondence.
10.
Reduce the number of preapproved credit card offers you receive by calling
1-888-5OPT OUT (they will ask for your SSN).
11.
Request a credit freeze if you live in a state that allows this option.

How to Use Your Shredder
Setup - Fixed basket model
Mount the shredder securely to the rim of the basket. Connect the power cord to
any standard 120 volt AC outlet.
Note: Some shredders include a built-in safety mechanism that requires the shredder to be
correctly mounted on the supplied wastebasket. Lining the wastebasket with a plastic bag will
interfere and may keep the shredder from functioning properly.
Caution: All shredders have very sharp, exposed blades on the underside. Please use care when
mounting the shredder onto the wastebasket.
