Tips to Protect Yourself Against
Identity Theft and Fraud
-
-
-
-
-
Never write down or show anyone your PIN
(personal identification number) from debit
cards. Use one hand to cover as you are putting
in your PIN
Report all missing or stolen credit/debit cards to
your bank or credit card company
Carry only the identification cards you need. Put
your birth certificate and Social Insurance Card in
a safe place
Don’t answer any telephone or internet
inquiries requesting personal information
(where you bank, credit card numbers)
There are scams where callers ask for the
numbers on the back of your credit card. Never
give these numbers out to those who phone and
say they are from your bank. They should
already know these numbers!
Use one hand to cover the key pad as you are
putting in your PIN number.

Online Dating Safety
 Only use reputable online dating services. Free
dating sites may attract dishonest people. Do
your research!
 Create a separate email account that does not
give away your name or identity.
 Do not provide ANY personal information to
someone you meet online.
 Initially talk to the person on your mobile
phone instead of your home phone which is
linked to your address.
 Stay safe. If you decide to meet someone in
person, do so in a public place and make sure
someone knows where you are and how long
you expect to be.
 Take your time. It takes time to really be sure
this person is who they say they are.

Health & Fitness
As you grow older, an active lifestyle is more
important than ever. Regular exercise boosts energy,
helps to manage illness and pain, and helps you
maintain your independence!
Tips for starting a fitness routine safely:
 Get medical clearance from your doctor.
 Consider your health concerns. If something
feels wrong, such as shortness of breath or
sharp pain, stop! If it continues seek medical
help.
 Start slow. Build up an exercise program little
by little.
 Always warm up with stretches before and
cool down after. Keep water handy during
exercise.
31
Housing
Things to Consider When Deciding to Move
There are several factors to consider when making the
decision to move or not to move.
Begin by asking yourself these questions:
 Can you afford to remain in your own home?
 Has your house become too large or too costly to
maintain?
 Is your home close to family or other important
social contacts?
 Does your health permit you to remain in the same
environment?

Elder Abuse Prevention Tips
1. Plan for your own future while you are well, healthy and
still independent.
2. Do not deed or will your house or other assets to someone
who promises to keep you out of a nursing home or take
care of you at home should you become disabled.
3. Make a will and review it annually. Do not revise your will
without careful consideration or without speaking with
someone you trust.
4. Do not give up control of your property or assets until such
time that you feel unable to manage them any longer
5. Have your pension or other cheques deposited directly into
your bank account.
6. Do not leave cash, jewelry, or prized possessions lying
about. Make your home burglar-proof.
7. Do not rely solely on family members for your social life
and care. Seek outside contacts. Develop friends of all
ages.
8. Stay active in the community as long as possible.
9. Do not allow adult children to return living at home without
carefully considering the situation.
10. Don’t be too proud to ask for help when you need it.
11. Don’t be intimidated in seeking your rights because of your
age.
12. Do not place expectations on your children without their
consent.
