How to Protect Yourself from Identity Theft During Tax Season

In the coming weeks, many Americans can expect to receive W-2s and other tax forms that detail
just how much money they made over the last year. Unfortunately, at least some of those forms are
likely to include a person's full Social Security number and bank account number. In the wrong hands, that information can lead to identify theft.

Privacy Rights Clearinghouse, a non-profit consumer advocacy group based in San Diego, suggests
that consumers take the following steps to secure their tax forms over the next few months:

- If you've moved during the year, contact each company you've worked for and give them
  your new address rather than relying on the Post Office to forward your mail.
- Use a Post Office box or buy a mailbox that you can lock.
- Have the Post Office hold your mail if you are going to be away for more than one night.
- Never leave mail in your mailbox overnight

Identity theft can be devastating, and the process of restoring your good name can be overwhelming
and costly.

 

According to my research identity theft victims spend on average over $1,000.00 in legal fees and
over 100 business hours to right that problem.

 

You need more than "do it yourself" information if it happens to you.

 

I have a solution that makes sense that's offered by the same company used by the US Government
in Iraq and Iran.
