Well, are you one of the 143 million Americans who have had their name, address, social security number and credit cards hacked? I guess it was only a matter of time before the hackers on this planet figured out how to do it.
Last night on all the major news stations it was stated that half of the American population has had their information stolen. I went to the site suggested (Equifax) to find out if I'm one of them and guess what? Yup.
Of course if the hackers were to go into my accounts they'd probably be laughing and who knows, they might donate some of the stolen money to me from other people. Time to check your out.

It says for me that it could have been - but it also says they are mailing letters to those impacted.

What really gets me @AbbyGreenhill is that this happened between May & July and Equifax is just now telling people?

@nanette64 Of course, this is not the first company to have this exact thing happen. They wait months of purpose.
