What Information Was Compromised?

Our analysis found the following data types in this breach: names, Social Security numbers, home addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses.

Not every individual is affected by every type of data listed here.

What Are the Potential Risks for Affected Individuals?

The combination of Social Security numbers with names, addresses, and phone numbers carries serious risks. Criminals can use this mix to attempt identity theft, open fraudulent accounts, file fake tax returns, or impersonate victims in scams that reference personal details to build trust.

People whose information appears in this breach may also see a rise in phishing calls, texts, and emails. Because attackers already hold accurate names and addresses, those messages can look convincing. Children and other family members listed at the same home address can be exposed to the same risks.

What Should You Do If You Were Affected?

Place a free credit freeze with Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. This blocks most new accounts from being opened in your name.

Request your free credit reports and review them for accounts or inquiries you do not recognize.

Watch for phishing emails, texts, and calls. Do not click links or share codes, even if the sender knows your name or address.

Consider a fraud alert with one of the three credit bureaus; they will notify the others.

Check your annual IRS transcript or account with the IRS for signs of tax-related identity theft.

If you notice unauthorized activity, report it at IdentityTheft.gov and notify your bank immediately.
