It's astonishing that people fail to secure their personal information and then wonder how it was compromised, especially when applying for loans online, which can be risky; in many cases, the reason their details are available is because they willingly provided them, demonstrating a lack of caution.

Resumen — +001
Opinión del experto
En la costa este, esta mañana se reportan numerosos avisos de llamadas que pretenden cobro de deudas inexistentes. Estos contactos frecuentemente ocultan su verdadera identidad y utilizan técnicas de suplantación para intimidar al destinatario. Para proteger sus datos personales, nunca proporcione información financiera ni datos de identificación a quien llame sin verificar su legitimidad. Registre la conversación, anote el número y consulte bases de datos de denuncias antes de responder. Si la llamada parece ser un cobrador, presente una solicitud escrita de validación de la deuda bajo la FDCPA y reporte el incidente al FTC y a su compañía telefónica. Mantenga sus dispositivos actualizados y active filtros de llamadas desconocidas para reducir futuros intentos.
