I am not overly concerned since I put a credit freeze on all 3 credit monitoring agencies. I use to pay for a credit monitoring service but in reviewing my free credit monitoring service provided by my bank, it was basically the same setup as the one I had been paying for. I have taken steps to ensure my financials were strengthened and safeguards are in place which I am comfortable with. A lot of my info which was found in the dark web is no longer valid and I changed all my passwords. Nothing is 100 per cent foolproof but I contacted my financial institutions and am satisfied with arrangements I made with them.
It is important to never click on an email you receive until you are sure it is legitimate and never divulge any info to anyone. If need be I will contact the appropriate agency, if need be. I periodically check my credit reports and just remain vigilant, but don't get crazed since literally hundreds of millions, if not billions of other individuals and businesses have had their personal info hacked also. It is, unfortunately, a reality of life and no one is safe with all the countless agencies and companies being hacked by unscrupulous entities. You just have to be proactive and take necessary steps to ensure you are relatively safe from all the scammers looking to scam you.
I did some research into identity protection services, I chose Aura Services , it has General fraud detection,ID theft restoration , standard 1 million dollars insurance,monitoring of the 3 credit agencies,
oversight of my USA financial accounts , 24/7 USA customer support staff.
All my life I was careful in taking precautions , 3 years ago someone used my address of 20 years ago to purchase something at Bestbuy.It took a lot of effort to clear this up,it resulted in me putting a fraud alert on Transunion credit agency account,now nationalpublicdata.com leaked data
comes along possibly taking the most
important Identity number and exposing it to the world, to pick at.
Its most disturbing.

“Senator Joe Manchin is retiring at the end of his term, but that won’t stop him from being a Democratic Party pooper all the way through the November election.
On Tuesday, following Vice President Kamala Harris’s announcement that she would do away with the filibuster in order to pass federal abortion protections, Manchin said this move was a step too far and that he’d rescind his endorsement of Harris for president”.

Thanks for being in the inside knowing Trump caused this. Spoken like a true liberal Democratic that has no knowledge.. perhaps CNN can hire you.
You , as I know Jack Sh$t about what's truly going on. The US media is pathetic
Totally 100 💯!
US corporate Media trust leaves little to desire , even some of Fox News.
I find myself watching M. Kelly and others
I can’t find the quote any more but a certain Ex Shah once said something similar ,when the Religious islamist had helped in his being outed.(The fall of western civilization will be caused by the media).
This always stayed filed away in my mind. Imop

It looks like I will have to contact the social security office in the Philippines in order to request a direct deposit fraud prevention block since I was recently informed that my ssn and d.o.b. were found on the dark web. Since I have never tried to contact this office before, can someone please give me the ph# and/or their email so I can contact them. Also, I understand it can be frustrating to finally talk to someone there so if anyone has in fact contacted them can you inform me when is the best time to call them or what are their hours of operation. Thank you for your assistance to this frustrating and stressful situation.
What happened , did you make any headway?
-
I subscribe to Creditwise a free credit card monitoring service.
I was alerted that my SS# was found on the dark web ,also attached to the alerts were old phone #(no longer in use) and old residence addresses from 12 years ago and older.
I contacted my usa accountant he recommended using a Identity Protection Service, such as Lifelock.
Im currently researching this.I use my daughters USA address
as a residence for Social Security Administration purposes.
Im curious does anyone from here , from the states use a Protection Service such as Lifelock?

Why won’t kharris/ walz do a debate on the most popular cable network,Fox news
More recently , after an invite from Harris to a CNN debate, Trump said that it's too late to debate again due to the start of early voting in some States. Does not seem likely that he's going to change his mind so the question is moot unless he changes his mind .
Harris accepts invitation for 2nd presidential debate, Trump says "it's just too late" for another one
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/harris-trump-debate-cnn-invitation/
I cited a fox news debate.
The lions den for the left ! She would never survive a fox news moderator calling her out on her avoidance in answering the inflation question starting from , I’m from a middle class family and opportunity economics .
“She was asked about those (the majority of Americans) who do not feel as though they are better off now than they were under Trump. She didn’t even address the question, reverting instead to a prepared speech about her vague policy proposals”.

Good news ,This could help Swing voters . Imop They need to see
more of harris, especially unscripted interviews , to make a informed decision. Imop
Despite the overall negative tilt in favorability, both candidates enjoy nearly unanimous positive ratings from their own party faithful and negligible positivity from the opposing party. While majorities of independents view Trump and Harris unfavorably, the former president holds a favorability edge over the current vice president with the group -- 44% vs. 35%, respectively.

Do you think Harris/ walz would be exposed to tough questions ?
Fox News, the most-watched cable news channel, has a flurry of prime-time opinion hosts who are supportive of the Republican nominee and his policy proposals. Trump said Wednesday he would favor having one of Fox’s opinion hosts moderate the debate over anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, who typically moderate the debates.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s lead agent probing the second assassination attempt on former President Trump’s life allegedly posted anti-Trump rhetoric on social media, according to a whistleblower’s account to Congress last year — though the bureau calls these claims "demonstrably false."

“They have followed the migration paths across South America to other countries and have set up criminal groups throughout South America as they follow those paths, and that they appear to follow the migration north to the United States,” Britton Boyd, an FBI special agent in El Paso, Texas, told CNN said”.

Chihuahua to El Paso,to Denver, to Chicago, to NYC, to Utah county, to Canyon County.
Tren de Aragua, a Venezuela-bred crew of thugs, now terrorize Gotham with gun-toting, moped-riding hoods, sell illegal guns under the very noses of private shelter security guards, and run sleazy prostitution rings in neighborhoods suddenly besieged by the marauding migrants.
The gang, which also peddles a lethal fentanyl mix called Tussi or “pink cocaine,” has grown so fast that it has so far overwhelmed both average New Yorkers and the city’s elite police force.

Most people I know won't answer a call if not on their list of contacts. So who are these people who are polled.
Are they done in person, like a table outside of Walmart with a questionnaire? Just curious.
Agree The only calls I answer are my kids and accountant!

From the source opinion article ,
Of course, our presidents are elected via the Electoral College, so the popular vote is not the final say. For the most part, the Democratic candidate has won the popular vote by crushing it in major cities and along the East and West coasts. Map-wise, most of the United States is still red.
The extreme left would love to dismantle the system , especially the Electoral College and change the makeup of the SCOTUS ,its no secret!
Joe Manchin seems to think Kamala Harris is just as much a threat as Donald Trump

harris & dem democracy and my countries legislatures history is being
put at risk by this radical wanna be .
“Manchin has devoted his last several years to protecting the filibuster, which prevents most measures from proceeding to a vote if they cannot clear a procedural hurdle with 60 votes. He has previously described it as crucial to democracy and said if Democrats successfully did away with it, it would be "the saddest day in the history of the United States of America."
