Question by TWBensgirl: Is there a financial alert you can put out if you are afraid of ID theft?
I lost the paperwork for opening a new bank account, and it had a subscribed check attached to it. It had all my info on it – social sec. #, bank account #s, my home address and my signature. I am worried about identity theft. Is there anything I can do to prevent it or some alert that can go out to the financial world?

Best answer:

Answer by Patrick C
Some States have a credit freeze law. That allows you to freeze your credit report when you are not looking for a mortgage or other loan. If your State does not have such a law, then there is pretty much little you can do to prevent identity theft.

What do you think? Answer below!

Answer by generation.betwixt
You carried your license AND your SS card in your wallet? Oh, Ouch! You have my sympathy.Yes, there are ways to track credit card accounts. In fact you can put a ‘fraud alert’ on your credit that prohibits new accounts being opened without calling you firstly.

M2SYS Technology

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) December 13, 2011

M2SYS Technology announced today that another campus in the California State University system has deployed their RightPunch™ biometric time clock solution with Kronos’ Workforce Central software to track employee time and attendance. California State University, Fresno Association, Inc. (“Association”) joins sister campus Cal Poly Pomona Foundation, Inc. requiring employees at select campus locations to clock in and out using the M2SYS palm vein reader.

Built to eliminate employee time theft, improve accountability, reduce payroll fraud and minimize compliance risk, RightPunch™ is a biometric time clock that seamlessly interfaces with the Association’s Kronos Workforce Central workforce management time and attendance software and requires employees to clock in and out through palm vein biometric authentication, optimizing labor tracking performance.

RightPunch™ will immediately reap dividends for California State University, Fresno Association, Inc. by eliminating buddy punching (when one employee clocks in or out for another), speeding punch times, and avoiding dearly-won legal expenses and compliance finned. Powered by the M2SYS Hybrid Biometric Platform, RightPunch™ offers support for fingerprint, finger vein, palm vein and iris recognition, ensuring that 100% of employees are reliably and consistently identified.

“Our RightPunch™ biometric time clock solution perfectly complements the Kronos workforce management labor tracking solution that is used by California State University, Fresno Association, Inc.” said Michael Trader, President of M2SYS. “RightPunch™ drastically reduces payroll error rates, expedites the clock in/out process and is a more affordable alternative to wall mounted biometric time clocks. In addition, we can’t understate the value that it adds with respect to compliance and its unmatched ability to verify individual identity beyond a shadow of a doubt.”

“RightPunch™ is an effective solution that has allowed us to provide a more efficient and easier way to ensure accurate employee time keeping,” mentioning Debbie Adishian-Astone, Associate Vice President for Auxiliary Operations at Fresno State. “We are confident that this solution helped to improve the integration with our Kronos workforce management system. This solution was an integral component in being able to manage and track labor costs given the current fiscal challenges being faced by institutions of higher education.”
