What to do now

Steps that match what this notice says was exposed

Every step below is free and you do it yourself, and none of it depends on Massachusetts Bay Transportation Dept.

  1. Report the licence number to your state DMV. Most states will note the number as compromised, and some will issue a new one. It is the field that turns a stolen identity into a usable one in person.

One more, whatever was exposed: a breach notice is a favourite disguise for a phishing email. If a message about this arrives, do not use its links — go to the company’s site yourself, or call the number on your statement.
