GOOD STUFF July/August 2013
how bad
is it…
...to allow newspapers to
pile up outside your home
while you are away on
vacation?
A: Allowing newspapers to pile up
in your driveway while you are on
a vacation can be an immediate
indication to thieves that you may
not be home. This allows them the
opportunity to break in to your home
or check your mailbox for important
banking information, social security
numbers, etc. You should suspend the
delivery of newspapers and mail while
you are away for extended periods
of time, or have a trusted neighbor
collect your newspapers and mail
until you return.
BOTTOM LINE: Sorta Bad!

how bad
is it…
...to throw out your mail
instead of shredding it
once you are done with it?
A: Simply throwing away your mail
can be very dangerous because
your mail likely has your personal
information on it. Even your junk mail
has your name and address on it! You
should always shred your mail once
you are finished with it, go "e" with
your bills and billing statements, and
monitor your accounts monthly to
prevent unauthorized purchases. All
of these tips will benefit you when a
thief decides to dumpster dive.
BOTTOM LINE: Pretty Bad!
