How to check to see if your info is part of a data hack
SUMMARY: A recent data breach by background check company MC2 Data exposed sensitive information of 106 million individuals, adding to a prior breach affecting over two billion records. Personal details like names, birthdays, and Social Security numbers are at risk, potentially leading to identity theft. To check if your information has been compromised, several trusted services offer free checks without needing your Social Security number. If at risk, create an online Social Security account, use IdentityTheft.gov for a recovery plan, and notify the IRS to flag your account. It’s advised to request a free credit report from major bureaus and be cautious of scams using traditional mail. For more details, visit clicktohouston.com.
If your data is stolen, it could be used to open new lines of credit or even secure employment, leading to significant financial consequences, including damaged credit scores and identity theft.

The incident, stemming from the Reed Road Municipal Utility District, resulted in extensive water damage and repair costs expected to reach tens of thousands of dollars.
