Though RCU is committed to protecting your information, there are other ways for your information to get in the wrong hands. We have the appropriate controls in place to protect your private information from being leaked from RCU, but that is only half the battle when it comes to Identity Theft.

You need to do a number of things to help protect yourself from having your personal information put in the wrong hands. Below are some of the steps Members should follow to help protect themselves:

Mail bill payments at the Post Office or secure
   postal station
Don't leave mail in your mailbox any longer
   than necessary
Be aware of surroundings when you use
   credit/debit card
Don't give personal information over phone or
   electronically
Shred your junk mail
Look at statements for unauthorized transactions
Review your credit report at least annually
Know the companies you do business with
Be skeptical about unsolicited contacts
Only keep what you need in your wallet

RCU does not want you to go through any of the frustrations that accompany Identity Theft but if it does occur, know that RCU is available to assist you in the proper steps necessary to minimize the damage.

We will continue to share helpful hints through articles, seminars and speaking engagements about all aspects of Identity Theft concerns.
