<p>I think my love of Proctor and Gamble products, all started with my   mom. She loves Tide, it is her go to laundry detergent! I remember her   washing the clothes and then hanging them on the clothes line outside.   What a combination- Tide + sunshine= heaven! I also remember my mom   cleaning the bathroom with Comet. It always got the bathroom sparkling.</p>

TransUnion wants to help you prevent your information from getting stolen. And if it does, TransUnion is here to help you.</p>
<p>Here are some easy steps you can take to prevent identity theft:</p>
<p><strong>1. Review Your Montly Statements: </strong>Your first step should be to review monthly  statements from your checking and other financial accounts. Plus, be sure to balance your checkbook and review monthly bills for suspicious charges.</p>
<p>2. <strong>Order and review your <span class="meta-classifier">credit reports</span>.</strong> The three credit agencies, TransUnion, <span class="meta-org">Equifax</span> and Experian, are each required by law to provide you one free credit  report a  year.</p>
<p>3. <strong>Use common sense.</strong> Do not carry your  Social Security card in your wallet. Keep it at home with your other  important documents. Be careful about online passwords as well and  change them often.</p>
<p>4. <strong>Sign up for <a href="http://www.transunion.com/personal-credit/identity-theft-and-fraud.page">identity theft</a> protection.</strong> If you think your identity has been compromised, having credit freezes in place can help. While they are different in each state, credit freezes are also   available. When you place a freeze on your credit report, businesses and   creditors cannot check your credit history unless  you temporarily  lift  the freeze.</p>
<p>Fraud alerts are important to prevent the thief from opening a new line of credit.</p>

<p>According to this <a href="http://bucks.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/04/01/why-retailers-ask-for-your-zip-code/?smid=tw-nytimes">NY Times article</a>, giving away your zip code could mean giving away a lot more than that.</p>
<p><em>It turns out, though, that stores are asking you for marketing  purposes &mdash;&nbsp;an issue that is starting to come to light in state courts.  Stores want your ZIP code because, combined with your name from your  credit card, they can use it to find out other information about you  from commercial databases, like your full mailing address. They may even  sell the information to data brokers, who sell it to other marketers.</em></p>
<p><em> The result can be unwanted catalogs and other junk mail. (To get a  simple idea of the cumulative impact of each tidbit of information, try  searching for your name alone on Google search, and then search again  using your name and ZIP code, and see how much more data comes back.)</em></p>]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://www.savingsmania.com/consumer-news/rss-comments-entry-33185110.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>Free Financial Printables</title><dc:creator>Diane Schmidt</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 25 Mar 2013 11:12:06 +0000</pubDate><link>http://www.savingsmania.com/consumer-news/2013/3/25/free-financial-printables.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">560087:12416037:33129294</guid><description><![CDATA[<p><span class="full-image-float-left ssNonEditable"><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JrMrVdRRhqI/UUsHGAzhPsI/AAAAAAAADdw/ROVD-LkX_uA/s1600/Photo1.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1364209943606" alt="" width="325" height="365" /></span></p>
