Keep a sharp eye on your banking and credit card accounts. Yesterday someone tried to access my banking information via telephone but was thwarted by security questions. The bank notified me and we cancelled the ATM card (which I never use except directly at the bank ATM). Then today, an unrequested set of new checks arrive at my door for a different account (HELOC). All account numbers have been changed and no damage done, but it could have been a big problem...

Be safe with your money in person and online in 2011!

A warning that can't be repeated often enough...

Thanks Scott.
