Understanding your BNY Mellon National Association data breach notification letter

If a BNY Mellon National Association 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

BNY Mellon National Association has reported a data security incident to the Massachusetts Attorney General, indicating a potential compromise of personal information. If you received a notification letter, your data may have been exposed, putting you at risk for identity-related concerns. Our team is actively investigating claims on behalf of those affected by this breach.

What to do after the letter

  1. Confirm the notice is genuine

    A legitimate BNY Mellon National Association 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 BNY Mellon National Association 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.
