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 News Corp UK & Ireland Limited.
- Expect the phone calls to get better. A date of birth is not secret, but it is what call centres use to confirm you are you. Treat any unexpected call that already knows your details as unverified until you call the company back yourself.
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.
