PROTECT YOURSELF Never answer the phone if you don’t recognize the name or number on caller ID. Identity thieves sound very convincing and may pose as a representative of your financial institution, internet service provider, IRS agent or lottery prize agent. These calls are from scammers who would love to separate you from your hard earned money. You have NOT won a new car, your computer does NOT have a virus, you do NOT have to pay taxes before you collect a prize, and you will NEVER get a call from the IRS demanding that you pay them NOW! “Phishing” is the process of sending fraudulent emails to people asking them to provide confidential information or “update” their personal account information. A link is provided to a website that appears to belong to the real company. Remember, financial institutions already have your personal information - they will not call you to “update” this information. • Never disclose personal information via a phone call or email that you did not initiate. This includes your SSN, account number, complete credit card number, PIN numbers or your driver’s license number. • Change your passwords regularly. Use combinations of numbers, upper case and lower case letters and/or symbols. • Do not open or reply to emails from people/companies that you do not know. • If you don’t have caller ID, get a new phone or answering machine. • Buy a crosscut shredder and never put financial information in your trash. • Keep your information (phone numbers, address and email address) current with your financial institution. • You can check your credit report for free at www.annualcreditreport.com
TEENS AND SUMMER INCOME It’s never too early to talk with your kids about money management. If your teen will have a job this summer, sit down and discuss how that paycheck is to be spent and more importantly, how much should be saved. Having a financial cushion provides a sense of security. Automatically put a small amount from every paycheck into a savings account. • What will the teenager be responsible for paying? The cell phone bill, their car insurance, or both? Learned early, the discipline to live within a budget is a skill that will pay benefits for a lifetime. • There is a difference between a “need” and a “want”. Designer brands may not be as important when the teenager has to pay for them. Life is not a competition of who has the most or best stuff. • Always know what you have in your checking account. Being refused at the merchant is embarrassing and it’s super expensive to be charged an overdraft fee. Kids learn their financial habits from their parents – good and bad. Watch what you do and say with money. This isn’t a “once and done” discussion. Starting and maintaining an open dialogue for money management will send the message that it is OK to ask questions and share ideas.
