Steps to take if your information was exposed

• Place a fraud alert or credit freeze with Equifax (1-888-298-0045), Experian (1-888-397-3742) and TransUnion (1-833-799-5355) to help prevent new accounts from being opened without authorization.
• Request free credit reports at AnnualCreditReport.com and review them for any unfamiliar accounts or inquiries.
• Monitor bank and financial accounts for unauthorized transactions, as stolen Social Security numbers and driver's license data can be used to commit identity fraud.
• Report suspected identity theft to the Federal Trade Commission at IdentityTheft.gov or by calling 1-877-438-4338.
• Consider requesting an IRS Identity Protection PIN to help prevent fraudulent tax returns from being filed using a stolen Social Security number.
• Be cautious of phishing attempts that reference F & P Georgia or this data breach by name, as scammers may try to exploit the situation to steal additional information.
