I’ve already accepted my name, dob and ssn are already out there from other breaches. One thing I immediately did was freeze my credit. It’s a good safeguard to have

Everyone in America should freeze their credit with all three major credit reporting agencies.

Do it for your children also, even if they never used their credit for anything.

Breaches are part of life now.

Freeze chex and lexis nexus and those too. Keeps people from opening bank accounts in your name.
