Sydney Information-Security Provider Launches Campaign for Identity Theft Awareness

Online, December 14, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Sydney information-security providers, Advance Security Destruction, have launched their new site http://www.identisafe.com.au with two major goals. As well as promoting their already successful secure waste disposal services and their identity safe bags which can purchased from the new site, it is also part of a new campaign to make Australian's more aware of the risk of identity theft.

"Security destruction services such as ours are an overlooked method of safely destroying office and personal waste and confidential material that can otherwise put businesses and the Australian public, in danger from gangs of organised criminals searching through people's waste. These gangs then look to use the individual's information retrieved from everyday waste such as bank statements and telephone bills, for fraudulent activities" Said the company's owner, Stuart Boyd.

As Identity-Safe states on their new site, identity theft is a 7 billion dollar a year industry and can happen to anyone. Ill gotten gains can be made from all personal documents such as driving licenses, bank account, doctor's prescriptions or any document that reveals your name and address. Identity-Safe provides a personal and secure document destruction service, giving all Australians the option to safely destroy and recycle their personal documents with no risk of thieves going through your garbage.

Identity-Safe Bags have a pre-paid address and barcode and can be ordered online using the secure PayPal system; they are then delivered to your home or business. When your bags are full, you can then take them to your local Australia Post office, anywhere in Australia who will then scan the bags and send them to Identity-Safe. All bags can be tracked through Australia Post's secure eParcel tracking system. All documents are cross-shredded by Advance Security Destruction using them same method used by banks and governments for a fraction of the cost.

More details about the method that Advance Security Destruction uses to shred and recycle documents can be found on their website http://www.advancesecuritydestruction.com.au.
