National Beat News from around the state and the nation In response to reports that millions of Americans’ personally identifi able in- formation and credit card information was exposed in a data breach at Equifax Inc., U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., intro- duced legislation to allow hardworking Americans to protect themselves from fi nancial fraud at no cost. Wyden’s Free Credit Freeze Act would guarantee all con- sumers can use PIN numbers to freeze and unfreeze their cred- it free-of-charge to stop fraudsters from opening new unau- thorized fi nancial accounts. The Equifax data breach, which exposed credit information of more than 200,000 Americans as well as Social Security numbers, birthdates and driver’s license numbers of an estimated 143 million Americans, has underscored the importance of credit freezes. Cybersecurity experts and the Federal Trade Commission recommend credit freezes as a method of protecting against identity theft.
