If you receive a breach alert involving your card, take action immediately to prevent fraud or misuse. You should:

  • Contact your bank or card provider to block or replace the card

  • Monitor your recent transactions for unauthorized activity

  • Enable alerts on your bank account for real-time spending updates

  • Use virtual card numbers (if offered) for online purchases

  • Avoid saving card info on unsecured websites or apps
