Personally I've found online banking, medical and travel services rather hard to resist.

Those new mobile phone things the kids are using also have biometrics and internets and look pretty handy to have around.

Which cleanup tool do you use, I've got 10 things flashing hundreds of dollars in subscriptions I'm fairly certain someone got access to all my accounts after the last person I called asked to do a screen share when he sent me a text saying all my photos would be deleted!?

I don't use a cleanup tool I am in Europe and avoid american services like the plague. I got my identity stollen once by an employee of SFR which registered many accounts. Sinces these accounts had my ID I contacted the operator to change cut them and allowed full access to the logs to the police. Was solved really quick.
