In such a digitally advanced world, most of our personal information can now be accessed at the click of a button. From social media sites to online banking, there has never been so much sensitive information on our computers, mobile phones and laptops. So when it comes to throwing away your obsolete electronics, we need to think carefully about where we dump them.

Fraud has become a very real and very expensive threat to people all over the world, and costs $ billion’s every year.

For this reason, it’s recommended that we shred old bills, keep PIN numbers private and never disclose too much personal information over the phone or to companies that contact us directly. The rules are endless, but when it comes to discarding our old electronics, we seem more than happy to leave our old computers on the kerbside – an invite for even the most basic hacker to come and steal our most private information.To avoid this kind of exposure contact the experts at Secure Data Recycling
