What to do now
- Freeze your credit for free at Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, and request an IRS Identity Protection PIN at irs.gov to block fraudulent tax returns in your name.
- Your date of birth is often used to verify identity: add a fraud alert to your credit file so lenders must confirm it is really you.
- Call your bank, ask about extra monitoring or a new account number, and review statements for small unknown charges.
- Ask your card issuer to replace the card and review recent transactions; card fraud is usually refunded if reported quickly.
- Review the Explanation of Benefits statements from your insurer for services you never received.
- Ask your insurer whether a new member ID can be issued, and check claims made under your policy.
- Get your free credit reports at AnnualCreditReport.com and look for accounts you do not recognize.
