The Lever - One way to fight back.

Imagine waking up to discover that your private information has become available online for the world to see — personal details that you’d never want exposed, like your social security number, phone number, address, even the names of your relatives.

This is the reality for countless people worldwide whose data has been shared without their knowledge. Just this past April, one of the most serious data breaches ever occurred as hackers tried to sell 2.9 billion stolen records online.

Your personal data being made public can lead to identity theft, fraud, and phishing attacks, where criminals attempt to use your personal information to open loans or access your bank accounts, among other nefarious actions.

What’s more, many online companies collect and sell your data, so even if you haven’t been the victim of a hack, your personal information could still be changing hands online without your knowledge.

One way to fight back is by using the data removal service Incogni. When you sign up with Incogni, they contact online data brokers on your behalf to remove your information from servers — doing the work for you. You’ll get a dashboard showing which companies have been contacted, so you know your data is being removed and protected.
