Receiving a data breach notification from Smith Dollar can be unsettling. This letter means that your personal information was involved in a security incident that the company reported on September 28, 2026.

The information reported as exposed includes your Full Name, Email Address, Mailing Address, Phone Number, and potentially your Password or Credential Hash. Importantly, Payment Card Information, Purchase and Order History, and Loyalty Account Details were also affected.

With this type of information exposed, you face risks like unauthorized charges on your cards or someone trying to take over your online accounts.

Also, closely review your bank and credit card statements for any unusual activity.

Moving forward, stay alert for suspicious emails or messages that might try to trick you into giving away more personal information. These are called phishing attempts. It's also a good idea to enable two-factor authentication on all your important online accounts wherever that option is available, as it adds an extra layer of security.
