The average break in takes only minutes, but the recovery time can be weeks, months and even years. Not only does it take time to recover or replace your belongings, but to file through insurance claims, and get over the mental anguish and stress. Imagine, however, that after recovering your belongings and beginning to feel safe again, you discover that you are still slowly being robbed.

Not only does identity theft damage your finances in the moment, but bad credit scores, forged documents and even criminal records can ruin your future prospects. It can be months or years before a person who is a victim of identity theft realizes what has happened, meaning that the damage can be severe and irreversible.While there are not many good ways to go about undoing 'identity theft,' there are great ways to prevent it. This is not to mention that the cost of fixing your credit and legal problems can cost thousands of dollars, and take up hundreds of hours of your free time.  Step up your home security and your identity's security with some of the preventative tips.

1. Always Double Check. Always check and cross check your bank account statements and credit card reports. If anything doesn't match, call and ask questions and contest it immediately. The ability to show you refuted any charge in a timely fashion can save your credit score in the long run.
2. Pay Attention to Junk Mail. Many credit card applications come preapproved, meaning the mailbox can be a suddenly huge home security risk. A person only has to grab one and fill it out to be returned a working credit card in a timely fashion, all in your name. Protect your home security by protecting your mailbox and have it either lead directly into your home, or a secured mailbox unit.
3. Stay Updated. If you have old credit cards still that you rarely use, cut them up and cancel them. This will keep the numbers from being picked up and repeatedly used by identity thieves. These can also be big home security risks as they leave a trail leading right to you.
4. Don't Dish the Details. If someone asks for important identification information over email or the telephone like social security numbers, driver's license numbers, credit card numbers, birth dates or more, simply don't give it out, especially not if they called you. They may just be looking to fill in the blanks on an otherwise nearly complete identity theft!
5. Run Credit Reports. Most people only have a credit report run if they need to. Doing so at least once a year can help detect any unauthorized spending, and can be a real lifesaver when it comes to recovering after a home security invasion.
6. Start Shredding. While many people think shredding documents is only for those in high power business roles that need to destroy dangerous evidence, it's actually a great practice for everyone to get in the habit of. Shredders are affordable, and can keep your trash from being the weakest link in your home's security scheme.
