    Someone mentioned  shredding  papers as part of a good security
    system. This is so important to do. Several years ago, I had someone
    steal my trash cans at home 3 weeks in a row. We believe that
    someone had followed us from our store, to our home, and had
    observed that we carried a bag or 2 of trash with us weekly. Since
    our business is only my wife and myself, our trash output is
    limited. Thats why we simply take it home, instead of paying for
    commercial trash service at our store. At the time we still used
    credit card machines that imprinted from the card, and there were
    carbon papers left over from each transaction that contained credit
    card numbers, expiration dates, and names. Fortunately, my wife has
    always shredded nearly every piece of paper within 10 yards of her.
    I have been in the jewelry business professionally for aprox 35
    years, and have nearly always watched my back as I go home in the
    evenings, but apparently I was being watched from afar so they could
    get my trash for the credit card slips.
