If you received a data breach notification letter from the City of New Britain, you might be feeling worried. This letter is to inform you that your personal information may have been involved in a security incident that the City of New Britain reported on July 30, 2026.

When your personal information is exposed, it means unauthorized individuals might have gained access to it. This can create a risk for identity theft or other fraudulent activities. It's natural to feel concerned, but there are steps you can take to help protect yourself.

First, carefully read the notice you received. It should contain specific details about the incident and any services the City of New Britain might be offering, such as credit monitoring. Even if services are offered, it's wise to take your own precautions.

Consider placing a fraud alert or a credit freeze on your credit reports with the three major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion). This can make it harder for someone to open new accounts in your name. Also, regularly review your financial statements and credit reports for any suspicious activity.

Staying vigilant is key. Keep an eye on all your online accounts and financial statements for anything unusual. If you spot anything that doesn't look right, report it immediately to the institution involved.

Understanding your rights after a data breach can be complex. Our team offers free case reviews to help you understand what this incident might mean for you and your personal information. We can help you explore your options.
