Protect Yourself ~ Stop Unwanted Pre-Approved Credit Card Offers

Since session has ended I now have some time to catch up on a couple of television programs I recorded.

One of them was a program regarding identity theft in Arizona. Although I do know quite a bit about this problem as it goes hand-in-hand with the meth epidimic, I found this little piece if information interesting and immediately grabbed my phone and called...1-888-5-OPT-OUT.

You can avoid getting these offers in the mail by calling a toll-free number operated by the major credit bureaus, 888-567-8688.

Your social security number will be requested to identify you. Getting off these marketing lists will not affect your ability to apply for credit.

So, please, right now, grab your phone and make this simple call, then afterwards, pass this information along to your family and friends.
