Hi, I just found out about a Web site in the Boston Globe which makes it easy to opt-out of credit card offers: https://www.optoutprescreen.com/?rf=t One of the tricks that identity thieves use is to steal pre-approved credit card offers from the mail and apply for a credit card in the victim's name. Opting out of credit card offers is a good way to guard against this kind of ID theft.
