Understanding your First Home Mortgage Corporation data breach notification letter

If a First Home Mortgage Corporation letter arrived in your mailbox, here is what it means, why you received it, and the free steps you can take right now.

Why you received this letter

First Home Mortgage Corporation recently reported a data security incident to authorities in Massachusetts, confirming that some of your personal information may have been exposed. Receiving a notification letter means the company believes your data was compromised, and it's crucial to understand the potential risks and your next steps to protect yourself.

What to do after the letter

  1. Confirm the notice is genuine

    A legitimate First Home Mortgage Corporation notice references the specific incident reported to the Massachusetts Attorney General and describes which categories of your information were involved. Compare the letter against the public filing before acting on any links or phone numbers it contains.

  2. Keep the letter — it is your proof of connection

    The notification letter is the document that ties your personal information to this incident. Keep the original and photograph it. If you later request a case review, this letter is the strongest evidence that you were among the affected individuals.

  3. Protect your accounts and credit

    Depending on what was exposed, consider a free credit freeze with all three bureaus, new passwords for reused credentials, and monitoring of financial statements. These steps are free and do not require you to wait for anyone's permission.

  4. Find out whether you have a claim

    Whether the First Home Mortgage Corporation breach gives you a legal claim depends on the facts. A free, no-obligation case review will tell you where you stand — there is no cost and no commitment to find out.
