What proactive step should Jayden take to protect his personal identity after receiving an unexpected bill from a popular credit card company with which he does not have an account?

Jayden should use the credit card company’s published phone number to verify the bill and report that he doesn’t have an account. An unexpected bill could indicate identity theft, so he should avoid using contact details on the bill until he verifies them independently. Forwarding it may spread sensitive information, and paying it or giving card details to an unverified third party could create more risk.
