Your Rights and Next Steps
If you have been affected by the LCPtracker data breach, it is crucial to take steps to protect your personal information. Here are some recommended actions:
- Enroll in Credit Monitoring: LCPtracker is offering a 12-month credit monitoring service through Cyberscout at no charge. You must enroll within 90 days from the date of the notification letter to take advantage of this service.
- Monitor Your Accounts: Regularly check your bank and credit card statements for any suspicious activity. Report any unauthorized transactions immediately.
- Place a Fraud Alert: Consider placing a fraud alert on your credit file with the three major credit bureaus: Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian. This will make it harder for identity thieves to open accounts in your name.
- Consider a Security Freeze: A security freeze can prevent creditors from accessing your credit report, which can help prevent new accounts from being opened in your name without your consent.
- File a Police Report: If you believe you are a victim of identity theft, you have the right to file a police report.
