Monitor Your Accounts
We encourage you to remain vigilant against incidents of identity theft and fraud by reviewing your credit reports/account statements and explanation of benefits forms for suspicious activity and to detect errors. Under U.S. law, you are entitled to one free credit report annually from each of the three major credit reporting bureaus, TransUnion, Experian, and Equifax. To order your free credit report, visit www.annualcreditreport.com or call 1-877-322-8228.

You have the right to place an initial or extended “fraud alert” on a credit file at no cost. If you are a victim of identity theft, you are entitled to an extended fraud alert lasting seven years. As an alternative to a fraud alert, you have the right to place a “credit freeze” on a credit report. The credit freeze is designed to prevent credit, loans, and services from being approved in your name without your consent. Pursuant to federal law, you cannot be charged to place or lift a credit freeze on your credit report.

Should you wish to place a fraud alert or credit freeze, please contact the three major credit reporting bureaus listed below:
