Lost account information

Recently, several banks in Wyoming were affected by a lost bag with a data tape containing account information. It sounds unlikely that the information will be misused however all account holders of the affected banks received a letter explaining protective measures to take including a free one-year membership to Identity Guard Credit ProtectX3sm.

If anyone ever becomes a victim of identity theft, a helpful four-step guide is outlined at the Federal Trade Commission website, http://www.ftc.gov/.
