Identity theft – it’s a growing crime and serious concern among millions of Americans. Every year there are thousands of reported cases just within the state of Illinois, a majority of them occurring in and around Chicago. While it is nice to think that these are isolated incidents that just happen to unlucky citizens, nearly half of all identity theft victims know the person that stole their information. As disappointing as it may sound, one of the biggest causes of identity theft is when friends, neighbors, employees, and family members willingly steal our private information.
With this fact in mind, homeowners should realize that protecting their private documents is an extremely important duty. From tax records to driver’s licenses, your physical information is worth good money in the wrong hands. Chicago homeowners have two key responsibilities: (1) protecting confidential documents and information, and (2) disposing of it when it’s no longer needed.
