Equifax has confirmed another breach on September 19th, just months after the first! Over 143 million may have been affected by the first breach, there are no numbers on the second one as of yet.
Equifax is saying that the two ‘incidents’ were not related, but there are no definite numbers right now.
The hackers responsible for the first breach were able to get social security numbers, birth dates, addresses, some driver’s licenses numbers and the credit cards numbers for over 200 thousand people!
To see if you were one of the millions that were affected by this breach, please go to www.equifaxsecurity2017.com. Make sure you are on a secure computer when you go to this website as you will have to put in the last digits of your social security number.
