Even when a company is not aware of fraud directly resulting from an incident, exposed personal information can create long-term risk.

What You Can Do
If you received a data breach notice from Manzil Investment Advisors, LLC, you should review the letter carefully and follow any instructions for enrolling in complimentary credit monitoring services if your Social Security number may have been impacted.
You should also monitor your financial account statements and credit reports for fraudulent or irregular activity. If you notice unauthorized transactions, unfamiliar accounts, or signs of identity theft, report them immediately to your financial institution and appropriate authorities.
Affected individuals may consider placing a fraud alert or security freeze on their credit files. A fraud alert tells creditors to take additional steps to verify your identity before opening new accounts. A security freeze can help prevent new credit accounts from being opened in your name without your authorization.
You should also obtain and review free credit reports and remain cautious of suspicious emails, calls, or messages that claim to relate to the Manzil incident.
Keep copies of your notice letter, credit monitoring enrollment confirmation, and any records showing time or money spent responding to the breach.
