Do you constantly get pre-approved credit card offers in the mail? With today's epidemic of identity theft, receiving these offers in the mail can be very risky. If someone was to steal your mail and apply for one of these offers, there is a strong chance you would become a victim of identity theft. So what do you do? How do you protect yourself? Luckily there is a very simple solution that will definitely decrease your chances of becoming another victim.The web site www.OptOutPrescreen.com is the official Consumer Credit Reporting Industry web site to accept and process requests from consumers to Opt-In or Opt-Out of firm offers of credit or insurance. The web site was the web site of the day for The Kim Komando Show (a top ten rated radio talk show with over 8 million viewers a week, www.komando.com). Komando states that you can opt-out at all the major credit reporting agencies. A word of warning: To opt-out, you must submit your social security number. So don't use a shared computer to submit the form. If you are still leery, use the toll-free number.
