Ive already called my bank and tomorrow Im going to close my account then open a new one, but im starting to worry about the SS#....what should i do so i dont become a victim of identity theft?

Answer 1

You should worry close your account and subscribe to a credit monitoring service like True Credit, so you can minitor if new accounts are opened in your name.
