Bill Morrow of CSIdentity says that you need to understand how YOUR identity is being used today. By the time you are in your 30′s, 40′s & 50′s, your ID exists in hundreds of thousands of computers and databases around the world. These will exist long after you are gone from this earth.
Bill goes-on to say that you should have multiple passwords and should change them monthly. Most people use their name and birthday just so that it is easier to remember. Unfortunately that is easy for the criminal to figure-out. Do not leave your mail in the mailbox for hours at a time and shred your “junk-mail” . When it gets to the trashcan on the curb, it is public domain and easily taken.
Ask your nursing home or caregiver “What is your background screening policy, and what does your background check do?” Many companies just check a criminal database for the name. Unless you can verify their name, the background will not do you any good, as they will be using someone’s name.
