8. INSURE YOUR IDENTITY
Imagine identity theft as a reckless joyrider who hijacks your credit score and causes financial chaos. Checking your credit rating regularly is like having a credit score bouncer, a vigilant sidekick that keeps an eye out for any suspicious activity and protects you from the villains of identity theft. It's an essential part of your identity theft insurance policy, helping you detect and prevent further damage. Just like insurance safeguards you from unforeseen risks, monitoring your credit rating acts as a safety net, ensuring your financial security.

7. DELETE YOUR DELICATES
Sharing private information on social media or responding to unknown emails is like hangin' out your delicates for all to see. Cybercriminals can use the information you post on social media against you, so make sure to set your privacy settings to limit who can see your details to just friends and family. Be wary of those sneaky emails/friend requests that may look legit but are tryin' to trick you into revealin' personal or financial information. Before you click or reply, stop and check if you really know who it is from.
