A business or company that demands my information and then allows it to be compromised should be forced into compensating all of us...or sued into bankruptcy. There should be lawyers all over this.
The company hacked should be sued into bankruptcy. 1. It should be a felony for any non-government entity to store social security numbers. 2. Credit should be harder to approve. 3. Hacking should be prosecuted in line with a robbery of an amount equal to the potential harm to the victim. If a hack can be traced to another country, that country cooperates and turns over the perpetrators, or faces severe sanctions.
Freeze your credit, friends. Easy to thaw if you need a loan. My information and family information was hacked through my employer about 12 years ago. I froze my credit then. Great advice Azul!
Why can’t I just register with my bank(s), land registries that I only allow transactions like loans, leases, property sales to be done only if I am physically present with valid documentation. For the risk and the effort and the frequency I would not be a problem for most of us. I also firmly believe that if someone tried, and succeeded to sell your home that should be on the bank to pay and fix - they’re the ones that got scammed, not the homeowner. Putting accountability on these institutions would tighten the system in a heart beat.
I check my FICO Score periodically and saw my SS# was stolen, put a freeze with credit agencies, told bank as well. Now I gotta warn the younger folks in the family🤣
Put locks and freezes on your credit on all three credit bureaus. Also monitor your credit card bills and any withdrawals from your bank(s). In addition, double check any government issued checks (such as social security) that they arrive on time and in the correct amount.
I have locks and freezes and I also put alerts and notifications as well. I get alerts for logins, address or email changes, withdrawals.....Alerts are your first line of defense. Use them
Remember when they put our SSN on every statement, on every check and everything else. The biggest issue is that companies don’t care and are not putting tighter verification requirements around everything. They want to make it convenient to open an account. I also heard that if companies would just pay attention, we would even need to have all of these red flag laws. They just don’t want to take any action until we demand it.
It just took minutes for me to freeze all 3 accounts online, as well as putting a 'Self Lock' on my Social Security number with the SSA by creating an E-Verify account to lock my SSN and use the service's self-lock feature.
Yeah right, going to Everify is another provider that u r sharing your data and they are another provider target to hacking😂. Go back to d old times, keep your data offline😅
@@bfdee1603 True but it's unavoidable, that data is online already. any transaction you do with business, loans, credit, even if you don't enter it online, those businesses do. E-Verify is a government agency, E-Verify is a program of the United States Department of Homeland Security. And whether or not you put a freeze online with the three major credit bureaus: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion, they have your data up anyway.
They will offer “free” credit monitoring until we all are on it and then start charging a fee for it. Suspicious as to who is behind the hack. Create a problem that you can resolve. Hmmmmm
The US Office of Personnel Management has been conpromised three time since 2008. I've been on the compromised list everytime. I have 4 credit / fraud monitoring services, all paid by govement for life. As Azul statement is correct it's a pain in the rear. Each time I have to change and validate all my on line accounts user ID's, Passwords and review all my assets for fraud.
Same here. I googled and found an article from 7 August about a hack of this size. From the last 24 hours, just (relatively 'just') a 600,000 name hack. Well, I suppose if it's another big one we will all hear about it all over pretty soon.
Ouch...voice recognition designed from recorded voice messaging. Don't want to mention a large brokerage company who uses this for verification. Hope they see this.
Hey Parisian - I didn’t share that info because it wasn’t clear when I filmed the video, what group was responsible. Has that been determined now? If so, please feel free to share that with us in the chat. Thanks for the question… 🙏 Azul
You tell them give me your name, employee ID, company, and phone number. Then look up a legit number for the organization, and call them back to verify. Most scammers immediately hang up
From $37K to $45K that's the minimum range of profit return every week I thinks it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.
Sounds interesting. I was planning to invest some few £ in some coins, stack them up and leave them for a few years, but seeing this changed my mindset. Thank you very much

The company hacked was the social security administration lol good luck suing government

I recall Larry Elisson of Oracle back in 2000, saying that in 20 years there would be no privacy.
If you have a social security card from back in the 60 on the back it states that the the card can not be used as a ID it is for tax s only
There is no such thing as Data Security.
Put locks and freezes on your credit on all three credit bureaus. Also monitor your credit card bills and any withdrawals from your bank(s). In addition, double check any government issued checks (such as social security) that they arrive on time and in the correct amount.
Equifax is the only one that is responding. The other 2 are MIA for data require and locks.

The simple truth is that security isn't cheap; gotta keep those year-end bonuses up.
This must be about the 9th time my data has been hacked. I've put a freeze on it a long time ago.

I think not.

Didn’t think about bad guys cloning your voice from a voice mail greeting. Good reason to use the carrier’s generic one.

You know all your data is hacked when you start getting emails from yourself.
Thanks Azul
🙏🙏
This is old news, this security incident happened few months ago.
Thanks
Sounds like August 2024 National Public Data breach
Thanks for the update
We need to go after the bad guys ourselves. Credit monitoring does not do a whole lot.
It was good until it’s not.
I don't believe I have ever had an official background check done on me. at least since the internet was a thing.
You are always the most informative on these topics with no shrill. Thank you!
When did this happen? I saw an article about it happening in August.

What is the name of the company that you are referring to in the video? And how long ago did the hack take place?
I think he said the Social Security Government web data. So affects everyone who works and has payroll taxes.
What is the name of the company you are referring to above?
Why didn't you tell us who was responsible for this hack?

because spending 10 seconds on an Internet search tells you USDoD was the hacker group responsible.
getting hacked is okay so long as you have no money
They borrow under your name.
What is the name of the company the you are referring to above?
Probably back check
With the market at such a high level at this point where do you currently have your investments allocated as a % (stocks/bonds/cash)? Thanks so much.
One year living expenses in cash reserve, your age as a percent in bonds, rest in stocks. Adjust annually.
Beware of SCAMS!
Any American who have not locked down their credit reports and social security accounts are 🤪

Do you realize how moronic your comment is given that Brandon’s lackeys already let someone walk in and steal all of our data? Get over your TDS.
Funny…I talked to a Democrat and a Republican and neither of them wanted to have their identity stolen. Not everything has to be team sports politics.
