1.
Do not sign the back of your credit cards. Instead put "PHOTO ID
REQUIRED"; although merchants and their employees are still hit-and-miss
on actually checking that ID, more of them are paying attention.
1. 2. When you order your checks, don't list any telephone
number. You can always write it on the check at the time of the transaction. If
you have a PO Box, use that instead of your home address or your work address.
2. 3. Be aware of which credit cards you carry now have
embedded RFID chips because the information on one of those chips can be read
surreptitiously by someone near you using a simple hand-held scanner.
3. 4.Place the contents of your wallet on a photocopy machine.
Do both sides of each license, credit card, etc. You will know what you had in
your wallet and all of the account numbers and phone numbers to call and
cancel. Store those photo copies in a secure place and
refresh it when you change cards.
