A 'Duh' Security Tip
summary
A walker finds name and address visible in a public trash can and uses that example to argue that loose paper equals easy identity theft. The specific advice is to shred credit card statements, junk mail, pre-approved offers and simple bills rather than tossing them, and to prefer paperless statements or a cross-cut shredder or secure shredding service for bulk disposal. The claim: exposed paper leads directly to account compromise.
