The information reportedly exposed in this incident includes your Full Name, Social Security Number, Date of Birth, Email Address, Password or Credential Hash, Mailing Address, Government ID Number, and Phone Number. The exposure of data such as Social Security Numbers and Government ID Numbers creates a direct path for identity theft and fraudulent account openings. Meanwhile, compromised Email Addresses and Password or Credential Hashes can lead to account takeovers and targeted phishing scams, putting you at risk for future attacks.

Companies like Othon, Inc. are legally obligated to safeguard the personal data entrusted to them, adhering to state consumer protection laws and common law principles requiring reasonable cybersecurity measures.

What to do if you were affected

Based on the categories of information reported in this filing, these steps can help limit the risk of identity theft and fraud.

  • Freeze your credit

  • Replace exposed ID documents

    Contact your state DMV or the issuing agency about replacing an exposed driver's license, passport, or government ID number.

  • Secure your online accounts

    Change the password on any account that reused an exposed password and turn on two-factor authentication wherever it's offered.

    Be cautious of calls, texts, or emails that reference this breach. Legitimate organizations won't ask you to confirm sensitive details through an unsolicited message.

  • Keep your notification letter
