What You Can Do

If you believe your information was exposed in the Frisch Financial Group data breach, here are the steps you should take:

1. Place a Security Freeze on Your Credit – Massachusetts law allows you to place a security freeze on your credit report. This prevents consumer reporting agencies from releasing information without your written authorization. Be aware that this may delay or interfere with the approval of new loans, credit, or other services.

   To place a freeze, send a written request to the three major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion) with the necessary information. Full instructions and contact details for the credit bureaus are provided in the notification letter.

2. File a Police Report – If you believe you are a victim of identity theft, you have the right to file a police report. Massachusetts law allows consumers to obtain a copy of the police report related to the breach, which may be useful for any further actions or claims.

3. Enroll in Complimentary Identity Protection Services – Frisch is offering 24 months of free credit monitoring and identity theft protection services. These services include credit monitoring, fraud consultation, and identity theft restoration. Instructions on how to enroll are included in the notification letter.

4. Monitor Your Financial Accounts – Regularly check your financial accounts and credit reports for any signs of suspicious activity. Early detection can help mitigate potential financial loss or identity theft.

5. Request a Free Credit Report – You are entitled to a free credit report annually from each of the three credit reporting agencies. Use this to keep an eye on your credit activity and spot any discrepancies early.

By taking these steps, you can help protect your personal information and minimize the risk of identity theft or fraud resulting from the breach.
