Feds Are Warning Louisiana Residents To Get This Out Of Your Wallet Now!

The holiday season is officially here, and the Feds are sending a memo to citizens to encourage them to not carry this item in their purse or wallet. If you're like me, I misplace my wallet all the time. Most people keep important documents like Cash, Debit Cards, Credit Cards, Gift Cards, and more in their purse or wallet.

With the holiday season underway, scammers will definitely be out in abundance even more than they typically are. That comes with more people out shopping for the holidays. The federal government is advising citizens to not carry their Social Security cards with them every day.

AVOID CARRYING YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY CARD EVERYDAY

Of course, losing your Social Security Card could lead to very dangerous situations. If someone crooked were to get ahold of your social security number, they would be able to open up credit cards, take out loans in your name, and much more. That could potentially damage any sort of decent credit you might have or would have in the future.

Per Social Security Matters, The best way to “Guard Your Card” is to keep it in a safe place and share it only when required, which is rare. In fact, in most cases, just knowing the Social Security number should be enough. In 49 states and the District of Columbia, a Social Security card isn’t required to request a Real ID. Only Pennsylvania requires it.
