Your checklist

  1. 1

    Keep the letter

    Save the notice from Payne County Sheriff's Office and its envelope. The date you were told can matter for legal deadlines.

  2. 2

    Freeze your credit

    The filing does not list what was taken, so play it safe. A free freeze at Equifax, Experian and TransUnion stops new accounts being opened in your name.

  3. 3

    Change reused passwords

    Change any password you used with this company or reused elsewhere, and turn on two-factor sign-in.

  4. 4

    Get a free claim review
