What Should You Do?
If your financial account information was involved in this breach, you should act promptly to protect yourself. Consider placing a fraud alert or credit freeze with each of the three major credit bureaus—Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion—to make it harder for someone to open new accounts in your name. Review your bank and credit card statements carefully for any unauthorized transactions and report suspicious activity to your financial institution immediately. You are entitled to free annual credit reports from each bureau through AnnualCreditReport.com, which can help you spot any accounts or inquiries you do not recognize. If you need help responding to identity theft, the Federal Trade Commission’s IdentityTheft.gov provides step-by-step guidance and recovery plans.
