Equifax Data Breach Settlement - Activate Your Free Four Year Membership

It looks like you can now activate your 4 years of Experian IdentityWorks℠ credit monitoring service from the Equifax data breach (if you chose that option). Some people may have elected the cash option but good luck to them as they will probably get no where near the $125 they might have thought they would get.

Look in your email for an activation code to activate your service. Must activate by June 27, 2022. The email 'from' and 'subject' is below.
