what is a data breach? Your bank account just got drained, and it’s happening to millions this week
A data breach is when hackers break into a company’s system and steal your personal info—your name, credit card numbers, even your Social Security number. Just this week, a major airline admitted a breach exposed the travel details of 10 million customers. For you, that means your wallet is at risk: fraudulent charges, drained accounts, and hours on the phone with your bank. Checking your credit report weekly isn’t just smart now—it’s survival. Don’t wait for a notice; freeze your credit today to stop the drain before it hits.
