On-line shopping is easy, convenient, saves gas and time. But how can we, as consumers, shop safely when so many instances of credit card theft occur as a result of using our credit cards on-line, especially with those sites that “store” your credit card information. Since we are shopping in the virtual world, why not use virtual credit cards?
As millions of people have become victims of identity theft, consumers have become savvy and cautious about how they use and protect their personal information, including their credit card numbers. Many people want to enjoy the convenience of shopping on-line and saving time and money, especially with today’s gas prices, but are fearful of using their actual credit card numbers on line.

It’s not uncommon for personal computers to have up to 200 errors. Just as human walk around and catch bugs from all kinds of different contact from shaking hands to pushing shopping carts or getting money from the ATM, your personal computer picks up “bugs” from wherever you may visit or download.

Can you get a free copy of Spybot Search and Destroy?
We aim to answer that in this IdentityTheftSecrets article.
Are you being spied on? Is your privacy being invaded? Is someone keeping track of your internet habits? Or possibly, even worse, are you being sold out?
Spyware threats are silent stalkers. Spyware keeps track of your internet browsing habits and creates a profile on you and your habits. It is then sold to advertising companies so that they can market products to you.
This isn’t just invasive and annoying. It can also cause your browser to crash or allow your home page to be altered or even hijacked.
What’s worse? Your computer may be infected even if you have not experienced any symptoms or problems.

Recently I found myself spending way too much time searching and scanning a bunch of different identity theft and information security news sites to get ideas for what to talk about on IdentityTheftSecrets.com, and as well as keep up to date myself on what’s going on.
Every few days, I would find myself spending 1-2 hours reading news sites to get great information about identity theft and information security, which isn’t a problem. But once I was on a major news site, I would end up reading everything from the horrors that happen on a regular basis to the offbeat news.
Not the best use of my time.
So I set out to find a way to get all the identity theft and information security news that I scan daily into one place.
