What You Can Do

If you were impacted by the Anchor Computer data breach or suspect that your information was compromised, there are steps you can take to protect yourself:

  1. Monitor your credit reports: You are entitled to a free credit report annually from each of the three major credit bureaus. Regularly check your reports for any signs of unauthorized activity.

  2. Place a fraud alert: You may place a fraud alert on your credit file to prevent unauthorized activity. A fraud alert notifies creditors to take extra steps before extending credit in your name. This can be done online or by phone with the three major credit bureaus.

  3. Consider a credit freeze: A credit freeze prevents creditors from accessing your credit file entirely, making it harder for fraudsters to open accounts in your name. This can be done with the major credit bureaus.

  4. Remain vigilant for suspicious activity: Monitor your financial statements and accounts for signs of fraud or unauthorized activity. Immediately report any suspicious behavior to your bank, credit card issuer, or other relevant institutions.
