PRIVACY AND SECURITY TIPS

Protect your information: Never give your Social Security number or personal credit information over the phone unless you initiate the call. Keep your personal identification number (PIN) and password in a safe place. Try to memorize your PIN and password and do not write them down with your account information.

Destroy or securely store your account records: Tear or shred receipts, bank statements, and unused credit card offers. Keep billing statements and other account-related documents in a safe place.

Regularly review your credit report: Order a copy of your credit report at least once per year and report any mistakes to the credit bureau agency and the creditor reporting the information. Keeping your credit report error free is important. Sometimes, there is a small fee for ordering your credit reports, but if you’ve been denied credit within the last 60 days, the credit report is free.

The three national credit bureau agencies are:

Equifax – www.equifax.org, 1-800-685-1111

Experian – www.experian.org, 1-888-397-3742

TransUnion – www.transunion.org, 1-800-916-8800

Check your billing statements: Review your statements thoroughly. Call all your creditors immediately if you notice incorrect transactions.

If you lose your credit card: Call all of your creditors immediately if you lose your credit card or suspect that someone has stolen your account information.

If you think you have been a victim of identity theft, contact your local government agency for additional information regarding your rights.

Certain Southside Business Men’s Club services are linked with those from unrelated third-party companies, some which offer you the option to share with both Southside Business Men’s Club and the third party personal data you provide.
