We are all in same boat. Ive gotten dozens upon dozens of letters from companies. Most even say, sorry we were hacked 8 months ago. Letting you know all your personal info was stolen.
I'm sure my social security number, work history, previous addresses, relatives, cars I owned, houses...probably how many times I shit per day also.
Just keep your credit permanently frozen until you need it. Keeps credit card offers from your mailbox also....
