Shredder!

Yup, those scam artists are pretty darn clever. I was watching Watchdog (I think. It was years ago!) and they advised people to shred any paper info that had name and addresses on, even junk mail. Well, those that will be emigrating, will probably be chucking out years worth of old bank statements, bills etc and just binning the lot. That's when those buggers get their hands on your info and start imitating you!

Before we left for Singapore, we borrowed a massive cross shredder and shredded anything paper that we weren't keeping. Will be doing the same when we leave Singapore, though there will be less chance of that kind of fraud happening here.
