RV_ Posted September 10, 2018 Report Share Posted September 10, 2018 I just submitted my data just to be sure we were not affected and you can too. We leave our accounts at the national credit reporting bureaus frozen and only unfreeze them only if we make a new sizeable purchase like a house which we will be doing soon. Excerpt: "In 2015 the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) experienced a data breach that exposed the personal data of approximately 4.2 million individuals. Following the breach, OPM and the Defense Department partnered with IDExperts, a private sector firm, to provide services tailored to address potential risks created by this particular incident including personal ID protection services. The personal ID protection is offered at no charge. Unfortunately, many service members and veterans have not taken advantage of this protection and remain exposed to the criminal opportunities associated with ID theft. OPM has an online incident resource center that offers information on how to take advantage of this free ID protection. Visit the OPM Cyber security website to get more information and to enroll. For more tips on protecting your identity and finances, visit the Military.com Money section."
