Done with Walmart.com? You can delete your account to prevent hackers from using it fraudulently. All you need is the email address associated with your Walmart account, the password, and the billing address on file. Once you provide the necessary information to a Walmart customer service representative, they'll delete your account permanently. This wikiHow article walks you step-by-step through deleting your Walmart account.

Things You Should Know
