Do you worry about identity theft?

By Doretta Donovan | Wednesday, November 4, 2009, 08:01 AM

Do you worry about identity theft? Have you taken any steps to prevent it?

JOAN GOODMAN, Trotwood: Through American Express I got identity protection insurance, because I was worried about it.

MARCUS HOLDGRAVE, Fairborn: I worry about it, but I really don’t take a whole lot of steps other than to check my statements carefully all the time.

KATE HAGENBUCH, Oakwood: I don’t worry about it because I’m careful to prevent it.

GREG COFFEE, Huber Heights: Apparently somebody got my grandma’s account number recently and charged $100 worth of Viagra, believe it or not. But I’m not personally worried, because you can’t get blood out of a stone.

STEVE CRUMP, Dayton: No, not really. We’ve taken all the steps to prevent it. We signed up for identity theft protection through the credit union, and we’ve got a cross-cut shredder that we use on anything with personal information on it.
