Having your identity stolen can become a costly, time-consuming nightmare. While there’s no way to stop identity theft entirely, you can help prevent it by taking the following measures.
- Monitor your credit reports. Review your credit report from the three major credit bureaus—Experian, Equifax and TransUnion—for fraudulent activity.
- Check your bank accounts. Examine your accounts for suspicious activity. If you spot something questionable, address it immediately.
- Secure your accounts. Create a strong, unique password for each of your accounts, including your social media and email accounts.
