If you are a PhD student and have an office at your
department, be wary of strangers in the corridors or
strangers requesting to be let in. Ask their business, and
if they cannot correctly name a person they wish to
see at the department or a legitimate reason for being
there, do not give them access to the department, but
ask them to go to the main reception at Sveavägen 65.
IDENTITY THEFT
When you leave your office, lock your door and close
your window properly. If you have a PC or a laptop
in your office, you may wish to purchase a Kensington
lock to chain your PC/laptop to a heavy piece of furniture. Most thefts on campus are of computer equipment and laptops—so beware.
Be careful to securely dispose of any bank statements
or other personal documents—shred them if possible.
This is a growing problem in Sweden and elsewhere in
the world.
Do not share personal information such as name, date
of birth, address and bank/credit card information
with anyone unless you know exactly who they are.
Keep your passport and personal documents in a safe
place.
If the cashier asks for your Swedish personal number
for your credit card transaction, show him/her your
Swedish ID card instead of saying the number.
Never give your bank PIN number or security passwords to anyone. Your bank will NEVER ask you for
this information via SMS or e-mail or regular mail.
Should there ever be an issue with your bank account,
the bank will request that you go in person to your
branch office to resolve the problem.
