Also, please be vigilant and look out for SCAM websites that might also appear to be doing the safety-check but are, in fact, mischievously collecting your info!!!
Epoch Times’ site was pay-walled for me so, I didn’t look at the article and sites. They are likely legit. This is a warning about other sites that might not be…
Just a reminder to be cautious with any of these sites.
There are sure to be a bunch of fake ones popping up to take advantage of people’s concerns.
Whenever one of these breaches occurs, I know I should check to see if my info was compromised but I'm always reluctant to do so (even now) because which sites are legit and which aren't? And if they are legit, who's to say they won't be compromised soon?

Who secures the supposed securers??
Maddening.
Do a credit lock on your credit so no one can open anything in your name. Just have to release lock before you apply for anything new
That is an option. Another option is to put an ALERT status instead.
No one can open credit without you being called and specifically being questioned and giving personal approval. A lock requires an unlock.
Thank you for this, I just locked mine on all three credit bureaus
