*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
When a thief breaks into a home, they're after cash, electronics, jewelry, guns, and anything else with financial value. This should not come as a surprise. But you'd probably be surprised to learn what else a thief might be after. In fact, some thieves might even be after your trash?
Sound surprising? Consider what your trash might contain. It's not just food wrappers and used tissues. Why is your trash is so important to the everyday home thief? Thieves who go through your home aren't just after your valuables. These are certainly important, but they're also after the most important thing in your life: your identity.
Going through your trash is about the inextricable link between home invasions and identity theft. Learning more about this problem may be very important to the well-being of not only your house, but your own personal safety. Home thieves are smart. They�re not simply desperate�in fact, most aren�t desperate at all. They know what to look for and what not to look for. Besides financially valuable belongings, they'll also look for passports, bank statements, credit cards � anything that could be used by an identity thief.
You may have heard about the growing problem of identity theft, without linking it to home invasion robberies. But in fact these criminals are an increasingly important source of the information used by identity thieves. You might think that most identities that are stolen are gotten from banks and other high-profile security breaches, but in fact a home robbery provides a veritable treasure trove of information for the enterprising thief. Even if they're not up to the task of using the information to steal your identity, there is a growing black market demand for this information. Computers are particularly high on the thief's target list. Not only are they financially valuable, but often they contain bank account information, passwords, and other details that can be sold to a hacker or identity thief.
While these items might be targeted by a thief who's already inside your home, your trash is even targeted by thieves when it's out by the curb on garbage pickup day. When a thief goes through your trash, that thief�s effectively casing your house to prepare for a textbook robbery by sifting through all the garbage and finding all the stuff you throw out that you take for granted: receipts, old bills, deposit slips, letters, and bank statements. There's plenty in your trash that a thief can gather to learn everything they can about what might be inside your house that's worth stealing. If you're not careful about what you throw away, the items in your trash may even themselves be sold to identity thieves. To avoid this possibility, shred all the documents you intend to throw out and be very aware of what your trash may say about you.
All of this points to how important it is to protect all of your belongings, even if you don't think thieves will target them. This includes everything from the stack of bills on your desk to the contents of your trash can. If a thief gets his or her hands on any of your personal information, your identity is potentially compromised. The bottom line is to protect your home and your life by investing in the highest quality home security products. The best way to prevent a thief from stealing your identity is to stop them from getting inside.
