Inverstigator, Greg Hons, gives tips to avoid being scammed in the New Year.
Tip One:
Leave your valuables in the trunk of your car when you go to work out. When you are done working out, look through your purse or wallet to make sure everything is there.
Tip Two:
Get your free credit report at https://www.annualcreditreport.com
You don't have to get all three at once. Greg recommends getting one in Jan, another in in June, and the third one in December. (The three main credit bureaus are Experian, Equifax and Trans Union.)
Tip Three:
Consider getting rid of your debit card in favor of an old-fashioned ATM card.
