Here are some everyday tips from www.carloanscanada.com to ensure that your risk of identity theft is minimized. 
To reduce the chances of your identity being stolen:
  • Protect your PC or Protect your Macintosh with virus software
  • Read the fraud alert information on your bank and credit card websites.
  • Check your bank, utility, and credit card statements regularly to ensure all data is correct.
  • Use a web browser such as Firefox that supports security features such as 128-bit encryption, digital security certificates, and SSL protocols.
  • Enter sensitive information only on trusted websites. Look for the "lock" icon in your browser screen that indicates the information is being encrypted.
  • Don't respond to spam, phishing, vishing, or other unsolicited emails or if you would like to respond, call!
  • If you lose any of your physical identification, such as your SIN or driver's license, contact the government agencies responsible immediately.
  • Do not dispose of personal information in the trash - use a shredder to destroy old bills and receipts, cheques, credit card offers, insurance receipts, etc.
  • Review your credit report from Equifax or Trans-Union at least once a year. You are eligible for a free credit report, and can monitor if there is any wrong information in your account.
