A credit freeze stops new credit accounts being opened in your name. It is free by law and you can lift it when you need credit: Equifax, Experian and TransUnion.

An IP PIN stops someone else filing a tax return with your Social Security number. Get one from the IRS at irs.gov.
-
Review recent transactions, ask about account alerts, and ask whether a new account number is recommended.
-
Ask your state's DMV what it recommends when a driver's license number has been exposed. Find your state's agency at USA.gov.
