Identity Theft

Unidentifiable Phone Calls – When you receive phone calls from people you do not know who are asking about your personal information or wanting to sell you something here are some steps to safeguard yourself:
1) Ask for the person’s name and number to call them back at your convenience
2) Nobody gives away free money, especially if you didn’t sign up for any drawings
3) Contact Julie Hilbert at Senior Services or Police Dept. if you receive any calls that sound suspicious
4) Get on the No-Call list – 1-866-966-2525
5) NO ONE from Medicare or Social Security would ever call you for information

Flyers Received or Letters in the Mail – There will be flyers or letters in the mail stating they can save you from probate or estate taxes, get you more social security if you are a notch baby, give away money because you won some foreign lottery. These are solicitations and they usually received your name and address because they bought them from another company that you may have had some dealings with. If these flyers and letters sounds too good to be true they are! To safeguard yourself:
1) THROW IT OUT!
2) Send a postcard or letter to: Mail Preference Service
Direct Marketing Association
P.O. Box 643
Carmel, NY 15012-06433) If you have a question regarding any mail you receive or would like to know if it is legit please call either Julie at Senior Services or the FDL Police Department
