One of the big three credit reporting firms was hit with a huge data breach last month, affecting nearly 4.5 million people.

According to a data breach notification submitted to the Office of the Maine Attorney General, TransUnion suffered a massive data breach in July, exposing personal data for 4,461,511 users.

According to a TransUnion sample letter that will be sent to affected clients, core credit information and credit reports were unaffected in the breach.

“We recently experienced a cyber incident involving a third-party application serving our US consumer support operations. The unauthorized access includes some limited personal information belonging to you.

We regret any concern caused by this incident and take seriously the responsibility to help secure consumer information. Below you will find information on what we have done to prevent further improper access, as well as steps you can take to help protect your personal information.”

However, according to a class action press release from Murphy Law Firm, the information leaked includes names, social security numbers, and dates of birth.

According to the Office of the Maine Attorney General,

“TransUnion is providing consumers with access to myTrueIdentity Online (TransUnion) Credit Monitoring services at no charge for two years from the date of enrollment.”
