Zara: bursts in, slams door Bruh, found site sellin' my data. IDs 'n all! 😡
Your data? Like full name, address, DOB, etc.?
Nah, just the basic deets, but it was still messed up. They had it all sorted by my Hall ID, can you believe that shit?
I can guess who or what service is behind that
Nah, this was some shady-ass site I never heard of before. Didn't even know they had my data until I saw it myself.
When did you check your account, like date and time?
rolls her eyes Oh, you know, just casually scrolling through my emails, and bam! There it was, a weird email from this site I never heard of.
What was the name of the site?
Ugh, it was something like "Data Depot" or "InfoHub" - one of those shady ass names. Didn't give it a second thought until I saw what they had on me.
Okay, I know exactly what to do.
crosses her arms, impatiently tapping her foot Alright, spill the beans, Hall. What's your brilliant plan to handle this mess?

pulls out her phone, starts typing furiously Alright, let's see what we got here. finds the contact info Gotcha! They got a Twitter handle too.
Okay, now do you want me to call them or send an email?
Girl, we gotta make it clear that this shit ain't cool, so I say we send an email. Something direct and straight to the point.
I think a tweet will get their attention faster.

Just posted it. They must have seen it.

You want a snack? I just made a batch of chocolate chip cookies.
