She called the Credit Card Company to straighten it out and discovered it was easier for someone else to change her address that it was for her to change it back.

What is done to prevent it . We are assessing security and that is being looked at. The Postal Service that it is continuously implementing these enhancements. They are not seen by the general public. They enhance the process for security. Without i. D. You shouldnt automatically send mail. Its crazy. For people like donna, requiring i. D. For an address change seems like an obvious solution. In the meantime, they want to warn you. Nobody is safe. Your mail is not safe. The inspector said the bad guys already know about this scam. Its important we educate you. Be on the lookout for a decrease in your mail. You make at some forwarded mail and report fraud to the postal inspector. You will find more information at kpix. Com.
