Ongoing Operations: Fraud Tip -- Valuables left in vehicles are prime targets for thieves. Do not leave valuables such as checks, credit cards, or identification cards unattended inside a parked vehicle. This seems obvious, yet many Anchorage citizens are victimized in this manner each year. The time and effort it takes to properly secure valuables is minimal compared to the time and effort it takes to repair damaged credit and identity theft.
