First, you should contact the three major credit reporting bureaus and place a fraud alert on your account. This will prevent any new accounts from being opened in your name without your consent. You can also check your credit reports for any suspicious activity. Additionally, you may want to consider placing a security freeze on your credit report, which would require potential creditors to get a special release before they could access your information. Finally, you should monitor your credit closely and take steps to fix any errors that appear within 60 days.
