Monitor Your Accounts Regularly Stay on top of your financial activity to catch suspicious behavior early: Review bank and credit card statementsmonthly for unauthorized transactions. Set up account alertsto notify you of large withdrawals, low balances, or unusual activity. Check your credit reportannually for signs of identity theft, such as accounts you didn’t open. 5.
