How many of you have started your holiday shopping already?
How many of you are using the <INTERNET> and a <CREDIT CARD>? <<DON'T>>!!!
There are a lot of <Internet hackers> out there and this is the time of season that your Crerdit Card can be comprimised and you won't even know it, until your bank notifies you or you get a over drawn notice in the mail, <Be careful where you shop> and <watch the clerk they like to slide the card <2-3 times> Once is enough ,<save all your receipts> and log them immediately when you get home in your checking ledger, then when you get your bank statement and look over them carefully you can match up receipts & <if you catch any unauthorized charges> that <you know you didn't do>. <CHANGE CARDS IMMEDIATELY> I know it's a hassle, But you have to do it, to protect your account.
Another good tip so that you don't <over draw> your account, have a $100.00 difference less than the bank as your own <personal balance and cushion> that way when you get near, you know when to tell yourelf <STOP SPENDING> until you make another deposit.
BEWARE OF YOUR IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING AT ALL TIMES IN THE MALL
There may be distractors to divert your attention away from your bags and you turn around to get them and they are GONE.
I hope that everyone has a HAPPY & SAFE HOLIDAY SEASON
