AndrewB Posted September 16, 2020 Report Posted September 16, 2020 Fortunately I haven't gotten any personal notice just as of yet. Fortunately I have all of my credit information frozen for this point at least. Youd think that the VA would do a better job of securing that information. Cal 1 Quote
lew Posted September 16, 2020 Author Report Posted September 16, 2020 This was tweeted by the American Legion so not exactly sure where the data breech occurred- Cal 1 Quote
AndrewB Posted September 16, 2020 Report Posted September 16, 2020 If anything I would assume that the data breach didn't come from the VA itself since they are apart of the Feds... It may have been breached directly with the American Legion. Which is one possibity. Quote
Cal Posted September 17, 2020 Report Posted September 17, 2020 Andrew, if you follow Lew's link it was a VA system that was hacked into. Nothing to do with the AL. Quote
AndrewB Posted September 17, 2020 Report Posted September 17, 2020 Well either way the VA still has to get their crap together. Just lucky that they caught the false claim in advance and reported it. Quote
