What to do if you were affected

Based on the categories of information reported in this filing, these steps can help limit the risk of identity theft and fraud.

  • Freeze your credit

    Place a free credit freeze with Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. A freeze blocks new accounts from being opened in your name and can be lifted anytime.

  • Replace exposed ID documents

    Contact your state DMV or the issuing agency about replacing an exposed driver's license, passport, or government ID number.

  • Secure your online accounts

    Change the password on any account that reused an exposed password and turn on two-factor authentication wherever it's offered.

  • Stay alert to targeted scams

    Be cautious of calls, texts, or emails that reference this breach. Legitimate organizations won't ask you to confirm sensitive details through an unsolicited message.

  • Keep your notification letter

    Save the notice you received. It documents that your information was involved and is often needed to enroll in any credit monitoring offered or to join a related legal claim.
