SSN compromised on the dark web
Hi all, I received a notification from CreditWise in my credit card app my SSN was compromised on the dark web with different name, address, and phone number.
I’m new to the US and my SSN is only a few months old. I only got my first US credit card (secured) a week ago. I have no credit score yet so if anyone wants to open a new credit line in my name, good luck.
Nonetheless, should I freeze my nonexistent credit? Anything else I should look out for or do?
Many thanks in advance!
