IDENTITY THEFT Identity theft continues to be a growing problem costing billions of dollars every year in personal losses, investigations, and increased financial institution fees. Criminals can obtain personal information from doctors, lawyers, schools, health insurance carriers, the Post Office, and even your home. "Dumpster divers" pick up information that has been thrown away, such as utility bills, magazines, credit card bills or solicitations, and other documents. Thieves will even take mail out of your mailbox before you have a chance to pick it up. It could take years to recover from just one incident of identity theft. Below are some tips to help keep you and your identity safer. • Remember to Shred Do not throw anything away that contains your name and address. Shred all documents, including pre-approved credit applications received in your name, insurance forms, bank checks and statements, and other financial or personal information. Magazine and newspaper labels with your name and address should be shredded as well. A micro-cut shredder is best, but for those with strip shredders, adding water to the strips of paper in a plastic bag and mixing it up will damage the paper and prevent anyone from taping the strips together. • Secure Mail and Deliveries Pick up your mail as soon as possible from your mailbox. If you are going to be out of town, have the post office hold your mail until you return. Consider getting a locking mailbox to prevent others from accessing your mail. • Protect Your SSN Do not put your social security number (SSN) on checks or credit receipts. If a business requests your social security number, give them an alternate number and explain why. If a government agency requests your social security number, there should be a privacy notice accompanying the request. • Know Who to Contact Make a list of your credit card and bank account numbers with customer service phone numbers and keep it in a secure place. This way, if there is suspicious activity on any of your accounts you can quickly contact customer service. If your bank or financial institution contact you, remember to verify it is really them and not a scammer. Gather their information and reason for calling, then hang up and call the official agency number to confirm the call is valid. • Keep Track of Replacement Cards When you order new credit cards in the mail or previous ones have expired, watch the calendar to make sure you get the card within the appropriate time. If you have not received the card within that time, call the credit card grantor immediately to find out if the card has been sent. If you do not receive the card, check to make sure a change of address was not filed. • Keep an Eye on the Bill Pay attention to your billing cycles. Follow up with creditors if bills do not arrive on time or if there are strange charges. A missing credit card bill could mean an identity thief has taken over your account and changed the billing address. • Watch your Accounts and Credit Score Reconcile all of your bank accounts and regularly check your accounts online to confirm account activity. You are able to obtain a free credit check from each of the three credit bureau service each year: Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian. An easy way to accomplish this is to go online to www.annualcreditreport.com.

SEXUAL ASSAULT AND ROOFIE AWARENESS April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and is a significant reminder that sexual assault, roofie awareness, and personal safety are important topics throughout the year. According to RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network), every 68 seconds an American is sexually assaulted. You can find additional statistics and resources such as “Understanding Consent”, “Safety and Prevention”, and more at www.rainn.org. The best tip for preventing sexual assault is: don’t sexually assault someone. While this is the best way to prevent sexual assault, below are some tips to help prevent exposure to date rape drugs and predators with harmful intentions. There are more than fifty predatory drugs that can be used to sedate someone. These drugs, including rohypnol, ketamine, and GHB, are often known as “roofies” or “date rape drugs”. These predatory drugs relax the body and can feel similar to being drunk. As they pass through your system their effect increases. This can lead to confusion, breathing trouble, blurred vision, and memory loss. These drugs stay in the bloodstream for approximately four hours and testing for them often yields little or no evidence. This makes it very difficult to prove and even harder to prosecute. Below are some tips to help prevent exposure to these drugs and predators with harmful intentions. If you are drinking: • Be Aware of Strange Smells or Flavors. If the drink is hazy or doesn’t taste like it normally should, don’t drink it. Be sure to pour it out so that no one else drinks it. • Cover Your Cup. Never set down or lose sight of your drink. Hold the cup by covering it with your palm. • Order Your Own Drinks. Don’t accept any beverages from strangers or people you don’t trust. It is safer to only accept drinks directly from the bartender. • Avoid Community Containers. Say no to drinks made in a punch bowl or pitchers. Instead, go for a canned or bottled beverage that hasn’t been opened. • Don’t Share Drinks with Others. You don’t know if your friend has kept a watchful eye on their cup. People can have very different reactions to the same drug. This means they could have ingested something harmful and not feel it’s effects yet. • Sip Your Drink Slowly. Taking time to consume your beverage gives you more time to become aware of any symptoms which can indicate your drink has been altered.

The last two weeks of Citizen Academy were packed with fun. Deputy Chris Barth kicked off week 7 with a Marine Program presentation and tour of the boat garage for a closer look at the marine vessels suited for various responses and duties. Forest Deputy and Search and Rescue (SAR) Coordinator Bruce McGuire then finished the night with presentations on the Forest Program and Search and Rescue Program operations. Deputy McGuire’s photos and stories were very interesting, but the class was thankful not to be on a live SAR activation call as part of our late-night class. Our Administrative Lieutenant, Jamie Russell, started week 8 with a presentation on the Animal Shelter and services provided by our amazing Animal Shelter team. Our Animal Services Deputies (ASD), Tony Panousopoulos and Dave Martin presented information on what ASDs are responsible for and how their duties can vary day to day. Finally, our Emergency Manager, Sam Buckley, wrapped up the night with an overview on Emergency Management, including information on day-to-day operations, emergency response, the juggling that goes into helping our communities prepare, respond to, and recover from disasters, and some personal preparedness. Interested in joining the 2028 Citizen Academy? Submit your application now and we will contact you when it opens.
