Mark -

Actually, just throwing the junk mail in the trash is becoming an "unsafe practice." I receive a lot of junk mail - especially stuff offering credit cards, which contain enough personal "pre-entered" information to facilitate "identity theft" by anyone who picks it out of the trash.

I throw junk mail away without more than a cursory look, but only after I've shredded ANYTHING that has my name and address on it. It's easier to run it ALL through the cutter than to sort out what might be dangerous.
