We take protecting your personal information seriously, and use state-of-the-art security technology to safeguard your account information. There are also some simple steps you can take to increase the security of your personal information. The first thing you can do is to use strong passwords and user IDs. Hackers always go for the most obvious passwords and login IDs. So think of a phrase, a song lyric or quote and throw in some capital letters, numbers and symbols. And never use personal information such as family names, birthdates, phone numbers, etc. It's also very important that you don't give your personal information to anyone who contacts you by phone, web, email or text message. Personal information includes your Social Security number, account numbers or any other information that can be used to personally identify you. To report suspicious activity, contact us immediately at 866-567-7760. You can also place a fraud alert on your credit file to prevent fraudsters from opening new accounts or making changes to your existing accounts. You only need to notify one credit bureau—the one you choose will notify the other credit bureaus. Equifax: 800-525-6285 TransUnion: 833-395-6938 Experian: 888-397-3742
