Make a List
|
A little list-making today will save you major headaches in the event of identity theft. Keep these in your bank box and/or home safe.
- Record a list of all your account numbers and corresponding phone numbers. Include credit cards, checking and savings accounts, insurance policies, and investments. Also list other important contacts' phone numbers: lawyer, financial planner/broker, insurance agent, accountant, executor of will, etc. In the event of an emergency, you won't waste time looking up phone numbers.
