Good Legal Tip: If your wallet is stolen, it’s important to also call the fraud units for Social Security, and for the 3 credit rating organizations, to put an alert on your name. This will block thieves from using your information to apply for additional credit over the internet. Good idea to photocopy the front and back of the important cards in your wallet, so you can call right away, to cancel your cards. Here are the fraud protection numbers to call: Social Security Fraud Line: 800-269-0771; Equifax: 800 525-6285; Experion: 888-397-3742 (then prompt #2); TransUnion: 800-680-7289.
