If your debit card was stolen, you need to report it quickly. The sooner your card is canceled, the safer your account will be. If you're having trouble remembering which cards were in your wallet when it was lost or stolen, you can access a list of all your active credit cards by checking your credit report. It may seem drastic, but establishing a police report and therefore a timeline and pertinent details could be very important later on.
For example, if your identity is stolen and you need to dispute charges, having a police report on file could be vital to helping you back up your claims. Be prepared to provide details on how and where your wallet or purse went missing, and its contents.
Medical identity theft is on the rise, with thieves using stolen information to purchase prescriptions and medical services and leaving someone else with the bill. Check with your insurance company to see if it can provide you with a temporary ID card until a replacement arrives in the mail, just in case you have a medical emergency.
Contact one of the three big credit bureaus Equifax, Experian or TransUnion to place a fraud alert on file. Why only call one? A fraud alert requires a credit bureau to contact you if someone tries to set up a new account under your name.
Awesome information! Such a wonderful reference! Thanks for all the hard work you have obviously put into this! Lost my wallet by foolishly leaving it on the top of the back of my car. Panicked when I realized what I had done. I thanked God on the spot, and I thank you for posting this vital advice.
This is amazing. Mine has been lost for over a month. There it was. Dawkins bless you, Rogue Industries. Today i woke up looking for my wallet. I checked everywhere i know. I had not been touching it for 2 days and i went through everything i did at the time.. I searched for it at least for 2 hours. Then i opened google i thought maybe id find some tips on how to find it. So i end up here. I read this and in less than 5 minutes i find it.
I was ready to go report it stolen. Then kept thinking how dumb it will be if i report it stolen and it pops op someplace by the end of the day. Guess this helped. Im not loosing sight of this thing ever again :D. Thanks for the tips. I have done each step a couple times.
This has kind of turned into controlled chaos. Any other tips? One of the most helpful articles on finding things. Every other article says think about where you were. But this one has breathing and multiple other things. Thankyou so much. What if I lost my wallet at the movie theater? What should I do? I think step 4 should be the first thing cause I destroyed furniture before reading the rest of the tips and now I need to buy another couch.
