Stay vigilant to protect your personal information.
AT&T recently announced that 73 million current and former AT&T customers’ non-public personal information (NPPI), including full names, email and mailing addresses, phone numbers, Social Security numbers, birth dates, AT&T account numbers, and passcodes are publicly available on the internet. Be aware of increased identify theft risk due to ease with which fraudsters may access AT&T customers’ NPPI. If you suspect your data may be at risk, protect yourself by taking the following steps:
- Create a new, complex AT&T account password (include numbers, lowercase and capital letters, and symbols).
- If you reused your AT&T account password or pin with any other service, update your credentials with those services as soon as possible.
- Ensure any additional passcodes used with AT&T such as voicemail PIN numbers are not re-used in other services.
- Expect phishing emails targeting email addresses registered with AT&T and report them to your email provider.
- Do not respond to suspicious text messages or phone calls.
- Monitor bank accounts and immediately report any signs of unauthorized activity to your financial institution.
- Monitor your credit report for fraudulent accounts with a free inquiry at www.annualcreditreport.com.
- Consider freezing your credit with the major credit agencies unless actively seeking credit such as a loan.
- Establish new security questions and answers that don’t rely on date of birth or Social Security numbers.
Call the bank immediately at 907-777-4362 or 800-856-4362 to report any suspicious or unusual activity on your First National account.
