Identity theft is on the rise and unfortunately anyone can become a victim. The damage caused can cost thousands of dollars and countless hours over several years to try to repair the damage done to your credit. In an effort to raise awareness and help the community to prevent such a tragedy, Shred-it, the world's leading on-site document destruction company and the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department's Identity Theft Task Force are teaming up to help local residents combat identity theft by hosting a free Community Event for the Agoura Hills area.
Anyone can bring their unwanted personal documents for shredding by Shred-it mobile trucks. Shred-it is providing the service free of charge on Saturday, October 9, 2010 from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm at Agoura Hills City Hall, 30001 Ladyface Ct, Agoura Hills, CA 91301.
To prevent personal identity theft, Shred-it advises to shred the following sensitive documents and old files:
• Receipts • Checks • Pre-approved Credit Applications / Credit Card Statements • Outdated Tax Returns • Envelopes & Return Address Labels • Business Cards.
For additional information on the event, please contact the Lost Hills Sheriff’s Station at (818) 878-1808
