Crime Prevention Tip of the Week

Cell Phone Safety Tips

Don't give out personal information over the phone. This information includes bank information, social security number, drivers license number, home address, etc. If you are talking on your phone in public, those around you can hear your side of the conversation. You don't know who is listening and who will use your personal information to steal your identity.

When talking on your cell phone, be aware of your surroundings and who is coming and going. Concentrating more on your phone conversation than what is going on around you, makes you more likely to become a victim of crime.
