Hi! I joined the forum in 2005 and last posted in 2008, wow.
Anyway, our IRAs (DW and me) have grown at Vanguard in index funds
since then (thank you lengthy bull market) and now after my own
identity theft scare recently where someone fraudulently ported my
phone number (I finally got it back after 3 weeks), I'm starting to
wonder about cybersecurity and asset protection and all that jazz.
I wasn't able to find a post that discussed this (which is surprising, so
maybe something is wrong with my search) but has anyone been discussing
best practices for this kind of thing?
For example, here is an article from 2011 about this topic:
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/how-to-protect-your-retirement-savings-from-identity-theft-and-internet-fraud/
Thanks! I hope everyone is doing well!
