Post Body

If i can’t post this here is there another subreddit you would recommend?

My living situation is probably changing, and I’ll be living in a “shared room” in a house with new people I don’t currently know.

I’m also going to be out of town A LOT. I work remotely and travel, so may be gone months at a time.

Im concerned about people opening my mail and stealing my identity.

I watched a video that recommended I “freeze” the credit bureaus/ my account so nobody can check my credit (& therefore get a loan or open a credit line)

Is there anything else I can do to protect my identity?
