<br />Attachment A <br /> <br /> <br />CITY OF LA PORTE <br />Established 1892 <br /> <br />Date <br /> <br />Dear <br /> <br />We are contacting you a potential problem involving identity theft. [Describe the <br />information compromise and how you are responding to it.] <br /> <br />We recommend that you place a fraud alert on your credit file. A fraud alert tells <br />creditors to contact you before they open any new accounts or change your existing <br />accounts. Call anyone of the three major credit bureaus. As soon as one credit bureau <br />confirms your fraud alert, the others are notified to place fraud alerts. All three credit <br />reports will be sent to you, free of charge, for your review. <br /> <br />Equifax <br />800-685-1111 <br /> <br />Experian <br />888-397-3742 <br /> <br />TransUnionCorp <br />800-680-7289 <br /> <br />Even if you do not find any suspicious activity on your initial credit reports, the Federal <br />Trade Commission recommends that you check your credit reports periodically. Victim <br />information sometimes is held for use or shared among a group of thieves at different <br />times. Checking your credit reports periodically can help you spot problems and address <br />them quickly. <br /> <br />If you find suspicious activity on your credit reports or have reason to believe your <br />information is being misused, call your local law enforcement agency and file a police <br />report. Get a copy of the report; many creditors want the infom1ation it contains to <br />absolve you of the fraudulent debts. You also should file a complaint with the FTC at <br />www.ftc.gov/idtheftorat 1-877-ID-THEFT (877-438-4338). Your complaint will be <br />added to the FTC's Identity Theft Data Clearinghouse. where it will be accessible to law <br />enforcers for their investigations. <br /> <br />Sincerely. <br /> <br />Michael G.
