PARSIPPANY — Valley National Bank hosted an Identity Theft Awareness Event on Saturday, May 9, at the Parsippany branch, located at 800 Route 46 West. This event was partnered with USA SHRED, which provided an on-site truck to shred personal and confidential documents, at no cost, to help customers avoid becoming victims of identity theft.
The branch also held a Fire Safety Tips event, hosted by the Parsippany-Troy Hills Volunteer District 5 Fire Department. Children were offered a free tour of the firetruck and a goody bag.
Residents from the community were encouraged to bring documents such as old bank statements, checks, income tax returns, credit card statements, etc., that were shredded on-site, for free. Staff members discussed effective measures that can be used to reduce the risk of fraud and identity theft.
