SECURITY TIPS

Credit/Debit Cards and Personal Cheques
  • Keep credit/debit cards, personal cheques and cash in a safe place.
  • Shop with credit cards or cheques when possible. They are less likely to be stolen than cash.
  • Keep a record of all credit /debit card account numbers and telephone numbers associated with these accounts.
  • Photocopy both front and back of all your credit cards and keep the copies in a secure location.
  • Do not keep Personal Identification Numbers (PIN) in any location that may be associated with the cards they activate.
  • Do not give account numbers over the telephone or by mail unless certain of the company's service and credibility.
  • Always keep credit/debit card receipts and ask for the carbons.
  • Report the loss of theft of credit/debit cards immediately to the issuing authority.
  • File a police report in the jurisdiction where the card was stolen. This proves to credit providers that you are diligent and is the first step toward an investigation.
ATM Safety
  • Be alert at all times when using any ATM.
  • Avoid using an ATM in an isolated or poorly lighted area after dark.
  • Be accompanied by another person when using an ATM after dark.
  • Refrain from displaying cash. Place cash in your pocket or purse as soon as the transaction is completed.
  • If you notice anyone or anything that seems suspicious when using or considering the use an ATM, don't make the transaction; use another ATM or return at a later time.
  • Report all crimes to the operator of the ATM or to local law enforcement officials.
  • Protect your ATM or Debit Card as you would cash or a credit card and never let anyone else use it.
  • Memorize your Personal Identification Number (PIN). Do not write it on your card or leave it in your wallet.
  • For Campus Security, dial 935- 8748/9, ext. 2748/9 or 784-8881
