Do you cut your old credit cards in half? That’s not good enough...

The rule of cutting unwanted credit cards in half before you toss them is totally outdated now...

In order to get rid of them safely – first, you’ll need to shred or cut the cards into MANY pieces. Then, you’ll need to dispose of those cards in separate garbage cans.

Some credit cards give the entire number on both the front and back of the card. That’s why cutting them in half is no good. A crook who finds one half could theoretically combine the information on both sides.
