Even better, LOCK DOWN YOUR GOOGLE ACCOUNT WITH DOUBLE AUTHENTICATION, then set Google alerts for your:

credit card, or if paranoid, partial credit card # "123456789"

Email address

Home address

Phone number

screen name (e.g.: "andrenotgiant" -site:ycombinator.com)

Bank acct partial

Password, Password partial "p@ssw0r"

Sweet, now someone just has to get into my google account settings and I'm screwed.

I imagine this is why the parent poster mention enabling two-factor authentication first.

Sweet, now someone has to get into parent's google account AND swipe his phone!

And my phone has my google account information.. :/

Are we too obsessed to ignore irony/humour?

Are these alerts over Gmail traffic or the whole internet?
