Don't let identity-swiping grinches steal your Christmas by: Sandra Block
by aaron16

My article, by Sandra Block, discusses how identity thieves hack into your account information by lots of different ways through the internet. Such as phishing, hacking, and any other way they can get their sneaky little paws on your account information and begin stealing anything they can take from you, including your money. This article doesn't just talk about the thieves, but it also gives you ways to stop those identity thefts.

Personally, to me, I wouldn't want anyone to take my identity in any way possible because if they did, then I would be extremely mad and also, I would lose a lot of things. My credit score could go down drastically putting me in debt. If I were to lose my information and some lucky person found it, they have an all access pass to buy anything they want. Ways to stop this are DO NOT give out your account information to any body, keep you info. stored away at home or somewhere very secure so that it won't be stolen, and when you buy stuff off the internet, always log onto its direct website so that there's no way that the thieves could get to your info.

I completely agree with you Aaron. =]]
I would get really mad too.
It would totally suck if someone already had ruined my credit even before i became a senior just because i had a slip-up on the computer. It would be hard to find a job, buy a car, buy house, or do any of the "normal" grown up things.
