Buy to Let Investors Are BIG ID Fraud Victims

Buy to let investors are big victims of ID fraud because all too often their post ends up getting sent to an address where it can be picked up by other people - maybe by new tenants or other occupants in a building.
If you have a void between tenants you usually have to pay the council tax - even if it is just for a few days. Maybe also the utilty bills too.
If these bills come into the hands of fraudsters they are manna from heaven as they enable them to open accounts in your name.
So get your mail sent to a secure address, preferably your home address and shred all bills you put out for the rubbish. See the main site at www.lettingfocus.com
