Special Post: Secure Your ID Day: BBB-Sponsored Shredathons on Saturday

Posted on: April 16th, 2010 by Julie Bestry | No Comments


On Saturday, April 17, 2010, 55 Better Business Bureau locations are helping you observe Secure Your ID Day by sponsoring community shred-a-thons.

Here at Paper Doll, we’ve spoken often on the importance of protecting your identity:

Will The Real Paper Doll Please Stand Up?
A Boy Named Sue May Hate His Name (but that doesn’t mean you can steal it!)
The Big OUCH!!! (Medical Identity Theft–Part 1)
Doctor, It Hurts When Total Strangers Do This! (Medical Identity Theft, part 2)

So moms and dads, small business owners, volunteers and professional organizers, gather up any paper (and computer discs) with personally-identifying information (but which you no longer need), and transport it (securely!) to your one of the participating U.S. or Canadian Better Business Bureau locations. BBB-partnered document destruction specialists in your area will shred your documents (for free) and help you preserve your good name.

   Remember, you are the only you you’ve got.
