If you're personal information has been compromised, we recommend the following actions:

1. Let us know as soon as you can. We'll review your account(s) for any suspicious activity. 
2. Place a "fraud alert" on your credit bureau file with the credit bureaus. 
3. Create an "Identity Theft Complaint/Affidavit"* with the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) to document the issue.
4. File a police report.
5. Save your Identify Theft Complaint/Affidavit and police report. Combined, they become your Identity Theft Report. Some of the companies/financial institutions you deal with may want to see it.
