    I have received a lot of letters, but none that I am aware of from that particular company. Keep your head on a swivel. Some ####### went and opened a couple loans in my name and some bank accounts. I was able to close most of them the same day but two idiot lenders actually tried to fund the loans. I am suing all their ##### now.

    To answer your question directly, it sounds like a scam. If the company or agency KNOWS your information was compromised, you shouldn't need to provide it to them. If there is a website to make a claim regarding the data incident, try to visit that website carefully with VPN or something. It should be a secured webpage. If it is not, I would not enter any information into it at all. You can check by looking for the lock icon in the address bar when you go to whatever web address is provided.

    I didn't do anything to follow up with this after I posted this. I bought identity theft protection last year after having had personal data stolen during another data breach from another company and the offer in the letter I got was more of the same - but after I gave them enough information to steal my identity. I'll stick with what I've got thank you very much.

    My ex-wife has her purse stolen in the 90's and we were able to cancel all the credit cards she had in it but there was a trail of fraudulent charges. It finally ended when she got a call from the Mall of America security after they got suspicious of a person using her identification to open up store credit cards that were used to buy just enough stuff to avoid triggering a more thorough look. She had a car load of things she'd bought when they caught her.

    The ads sounded good to me, but they're business model seemed to be to try and be just a little less messed up than the post office.

    I don't blame you for wanting to stick with what you got. That is unfortunate about the theft of your wifes information but I am happy to hear that the person got caught. Just so you know in the future, the places who open these fraudulent accounts, etc. they are required to provide the victim with the documents and business records related to any and all transactions from that theft. I am in the middle of arbitrating many of the creditors regarding my identity theft who think it doesn't apply to them. But it does. 15 USC § 1681g(e). They're required to provide the information to the victim and law enforcement. I am wanting it all so that when I file the police report for the ID theft I had, the police have all the information they need right there when I file. I also completed an FTC Identity Theft Report.

    Glad your getting things worked out.
    It was the mall security that caught the woman using my wife's ID, the stores wanted them to deal with it. I'm not sure how this woman was able to use my ex-wife's drivers license to open these accounts, she's a pale white woman with red hair and the scammer was neither. Someone either changed the picture on the license or the stores were pretty oblivious to the difference.

    I left 10 Roads in '22. I am still in contact with some of their drivers. Although USPS has something to do with the decrease of the routes, they aren't the only ones to blame. Wayne Hovestol is no longer running the day to day operations. Although still on the board, he has basically retired. I never had a problem with Wayne. I talked to him a couple of times. It is being run by his son-in-law Tom Crimmins. Now we have all heard horror stories of family members taking over a company and failing. I do not believe that is the case here. I like Tom, he is a good guy. I have talked to him many times. However his buddy minions Rico and Jeff are the problem in my opinion. Number 2 and 3 in the company. They have a great disdain for drivers. I have heard each one of them say it in so many words on different occasions. It's so funny how they forget who produces the revenue. Rico is a my way or the hiway guy and thinks all his ideas are gold. He just doesn't seem to understand how to balance things out. If I were to go back to work there is no way I would work for this company.

    As for the letter from DRT. It is real. DRT is basically a 3rd party company that the HR and execs actually work for. I believe it's one of those plausible deniability type things. This is their SECOND hack in about 3 years. The monitoring they offer is from IDX. It's more than a basic credit monitoring. I requested of DRT that my info be deleted from their system. I am no longer an employee. I was told, by law they have to keep it. I asked what the law says when a company has a pattern of not being able to protect my info. Of course that was met with silence. I'm retired. This is not over. I've got better things to do, but I so enjoy this type of fight.
