This year with all of the news of ID fraud and credit card theft going on I was very much on edge more than any other year. I do a lot of shopping online so needless to say I get a lot of statements and receipts that contain information that, if put in the wrong hands, could cause me a major financial headache. Normally when I get my credit card statements I will toss them aside and rip them up. But this year that just didn’t seem like enough to me. I wanted to make sure that all of my important documents and information were shredded to the point that no one could piece the information back together. Thanks for the help of the Fellowes P-12C Paper Shredder I can do just that.
According to Javelin Strategy & Research, there was one incident of ID fraud every three seconds in 2012. The holiday season is an especially dangerous time of year for this crime as consumers are distracted and sharing their confidential information frequently, such as credit card numbers. With the P-12C I am able to destroy 12 pieces of paper at a time into approximately 309 particles per sheet with the cross-Cut Blades. With this many pieces of paper it would make it extremely difficult to reassemble.
Not only does the P-12C shred paper but it’s also able to shred credit cards, paper clips, staples, and junk mail making it extra convenient to get rid of lot’s of clutter at once. The SafeSense Technology on the shredder automatically disables the shredder when hands touch the paper opening. This is honestly one of my favorite features because for some reason both of my kids are fascinated with the shredder and always wanting to shred something.
Not only is the P-12C a great shredder for moms but it’s perfect for finance-savvy parents and paper-ridden college students. The slim design and innovative technologies make it a great choice for at-home and dorm room use. I love the way it slides right under my desk and doesn’t take up a bunch of room. It would be perfect for small spaces as well.
The P-12C can be purchased at Walmart Stores nationwide and at www.Walmart.com for a suggested retail price of $99.97. Start the New Year off right and protect yourself from ID theft.
