How to Avoid Community Crime - Is Your Bank Account Safe? Check Your Cell Phone!

Today I will tell you a story that I received in my email and felt it should be shared with everyone. I feel it is important to share these two stories (read the first in "How To Avoid Community Crime-Is Your Home Safe? Check Your GPS!") because most of us are so busy that we sometimes miss key elements that may affect our safety. But, hopefully, during your time of searching, you found these articles on community crime and they will help you change your thought process of how you store personal information into your cell phone, GPS, Ipod, etc. Today, most women carry handbags which contained a cell phone, credit cards, wallets, etc. Unfortunately, for this one particular lady, her handbag was stolen. Twenty minutes later, she phoned her husband from a pay phone telling him what had happened. Her husband responded by saying "I received your text asking about our pin number and I replied a little while ago." They rushed to the bank and the bank staff told them that all the money was already withdraw. How terrifying it must be to find out that most of your savings had been stolen. The thief had used the stolen cell phone to text "hubby" in the contact list and obtained the pin number. Within twenty minutes he had withdrawn all the money from their bank account. Therefore, the moral of this story is do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in your contact lists. Avoid using names like home, honey, hubby, sweetheart, Mom, Dad, etc. And most importantly, when sensitive information is being requested through a text, confirm the information by phoning back the individual requesting it. Another important point to stress is, when your friends or family text you to meet them somewhere, be sure to phone them back to confirm that the message came from them. If you do not reach them, do not go or be extremely careful about going places to meet family and friends who text you. It is extremely difficult to protect ourselves and families from every situation that can occurred, but you absolutely can take action to maximize your family's safety. It is 100% legal to perform background checks on people who become close to you and your family.And more importantly, you have the right to find out about anyone at anytime that has contact with you or your family. You have the right to be aware and safe of those that come in contact with you and your family.About the Author:
