What They're Offering
What They're Not Telling You
Read the letter carefully
Note the date of the breach, the exact data types listed, and the offer (if any) of credit monitoring services. Keep the original letter — it may be evidence.
Freeze your credit immediately
A credit freeze at all three bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion) is free and blocks new credit in your name. Do this before anything else.
Review your medical records for errors
Request copies of your medical records from your insurer and any treating providers. Look for treatments, diagnoses, or prescriptions that are not yours — these are signs of medical identity theft.
Consult a data breach attorney
You may be entitled to compensation beyond what the company's offer covers. An attorney can evaluate your specific situation at no charge — the consultation is free and there is no fee unless compensation is recovered.
