What You Should Do Next
If you believe you may be affected by this breach, consider taking the following steps to protect your identity and personal information:
- Enroll in Credit Monitoring: Take advantage of the identity theft protection services offered for one year through Kroll, which includes credit monitoring and identity theft protection.
- Place a Fraud Alert: Contact one of the three major credit bureaus (Experian, TransUnion, or Equifax) to place a fraud alert on your credit report, which will make it harder for identity thieves to open accounts in your name.
- Freeze Your Credit: Consider freezing your credit, which prevents creditors from accessing your credit report until you lift the freeze. This makes it more difficult for identity thieves to open new accounts under your name.
- Review Account Statements: Regularly check your bank and credit card statements for any unauthorized transactions or unfamiliar activities.
- Report Suspicious Activity: If you notice any suspicious activity, report it immediately to your bank, credit card company, and local authorities.
- Monitor Your Credit Report: Obtain your free annual credit report to ensure there are no discrepancies. You can get your report at AnnualCreditReport.com.
