Identity theft is major problem. According to IdentityTheft.info, more than 15 million US citizens have their identities stolen each year. As technology changes, these thieves adapt very quickly. One way to protect yourself is by attending things like the free Westfield paper shredding event being hosted by me and my colleague, Patrick Cicala.

Free Westfield Paper Shredding Event
Never put your financial documents out on the curb for your weekly trash pick up. Once anything is placed out at the curb, anyone can take it for their own personal use. Shred all of your old, outdated financial information you have before you recycle it. If you don't have a personal shredder at home, you need to RSVP to my free Westfield paper shredding event.
Bring your old bank statements, expired credit cards, investment account documents, insurance information, etc. to Capital One Bank on Saturday, June 11th. While the Liberty Group safely and securely destroys your documents, you can join us for a cup of coffee and a muffin. It won't cost you a cent either. If you RSVP to my free Westfield paper shredding event now, you can skip the line.
For more tips on how to prevent identity theft, please visit the government's Identity Theft information web page at USA.gov. They offer great tips on how to protect yourself from identity theft as well as what steps you need to take if you have your identity stolen. It can take months and, sometimes, years to reverse the effects this has on your credit and your life.
