Protect Your Identity...With IdentityHawk!

Have you or someone you know ever been the victim of identity theft? I have not personally, but have heard of people who have had issues with this. Identity theft can come in many different forms...everything from credit card theft to falsifying signatures. Using the internet to make purchases can also lead to identity theft...especially if you are purchasing from a company that is not reputable or has very little to no security precautions on their site. It definitely can be frustrating so here are a few tips that I have about how I am attempting to protect myself and my family from identity theft.

#1. Check out IdentityHawk. This online company provides state of the art monitoring technology that scans the internet and alerts you when it detects threats of identity theft. When this company finds something suspicious, it sends you an email to notify you of the possible danger.

#2. Shred your junk mail. Even junk mail can hold information about you that you don't want the wrong person to see. So, don't just toss it out...shred it up first.

#3. Beware of those around you when using your credit card. I don't put it past ANYONE these days to take a photo of your credit card on their cell phone and then use the information in that photo to make unlawful and unauthorized purchases. It happens so be cautious.

So, there are my few yet helpful tips on how I am trying to implement identity theft protection. Take some time today to make sure you are taking extra steps to protect you and the ones you love.

So, this next review is brought to you by Carmex and is featuring their brand new Vanilla Twist and Lime Twist Ultra Moisturizing Lip Balms !

Carmex Healing Lotion & Healing Cream Review

Because I am a member of the Carmex Blog Squad , I am informed of and privileged to bring you reviews of Carmex's newest products! This is something that I have been doing for awhile and have really grown to love the Carmex brand. The newest products that have been introduced by Carmex are lovely and will definitely impress you as they have me. Because I am a mom, I wash my hands frequently. After diaper changes, before cleaning wounds, bathroom breaks, preparing food...all this requires clean hands. Because I usually apply lotion while I am moving and going from one thing to the next, I do not like a greasy lotion. I HATE applying a cream and having to "dry" my hands for the next half hour. What a perfectly good waste of time that is. So, I was wondering what Carmex would offer me in way of fast and quickly absorbing lotion. Before I continue, here is a bit more about Carmex for those of you who are new to their brand... Carmex® lip balm was invented in 1...

Community Coffee Review

In my house, I am the only coffee drinker. This means that I can choose the type (caffeinated or decaf), flavor and strength of my coffee. I fell in love with coffee when I was in high school and have never looked back. To me, it is relaxing to sip on a cup in the morning and to enjoy a cup while visiting with friends. Holding onto a mug also gives me something to do with my hands instead of flapping them around. Ha ha! Well, we have just ended a wonderful holiday season and I am sure many of you enjoyed coffee in fun and delicious seasonal flavors. I also love how there are special liquid coffee creamers that take on a holiday feel as well...eggnog, hazelnut and peppermint to name a few. YUM! Well, just because the holidays are over, doesn't mean you cannot enjoy a taste of them now! I am sure many of you have heard of Community Coffee and their delicious variety of coffees. Well, I have known about them for some time now but have never tried their brand before. I was ...
