I do this once every six months. Call the three credit agencies, tell them who you are, and that you want a 'fraud alert' placed on your account. They don't ask why, even. It stops any new credit offerings coming to you, and every once in a while, you'll get a call asking about a purchase you are making. Is only an inconvienience to the guy who is scamming you.
I just keep it on my account all the time. Lasts six months before dropping automatically.
