PSA: GovMint.com Data Breach

[SilverStorm]

This is a public service announcement - if you have purchased anything from GovMint.com, be aware that there was a data breach between May 21, 2020 and May 3, 2021, and your personal information (including credit card payment information) is compromised.   Please see attached letter that I received in the mail yesterday.   Note:  after I received the letter, I also had the bad luck of having 4 unauthorized pending charges placed on my credit card (same card I used on GovMint).   I called my credit card company advising of the fraud, and they have cancelled my card and re-issued a new for me.    Now the annoying task of contacting a credit monitoring company to confirm no other fraudulent activity occurred that may impact me financially.   To say I'm really p*ssed at the @sholes who did this is an understatement.    🤬
