You have probably heard about or read about yesterday's announcement of
a "massive breach" of credit bureau data by bad people. if you haven't, see
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/07/business/equifax-cyberattack.html?_r=0
or, if the NYT is not for you, see this Fox News video about it:

I am sending this email to urge you to take no action, to do nothing, to
not follow any instructions you might receive for "protecting yourself".
There is a blizzard of scams out there (including one actually run by
Equifax!) and the only way to protect yourself is to trust none of them,
at least for now.
