So Equifax was hacked. Like,Watch Watery Boarding House Online badly. But how to tell if you, personally, are affected by the massive data breach? There's a website for that — as long as you don't mind forking over even more information to Equifax.

The credit reporting agency announced Thursday that private identifying information on potentially 143 million US citizens was accessed by "criminals," and that the information in question could include names, social security numbers, birth dates, addresses, and even possibly driver's license numbers.

But don't worry! Equifax is here to save the day! And, as we said, if you trust them with your personal information (which, maybe not a great idea?), the process of determining if you'll now need to keep an eye out for identity theft should be a breeze.

Head to the company's website, and warily type in the last six digits of your social security number along with your last name. (Or don't, as it's possible that giving a company that just got hacked even more of your data is not the best play.)

"Based on that information," the site tells us, "you will receive a message indicating whether your personal information may have been impacted by this incident."

My colleague, however, had a slightly different experience. She went through the above process and did receive a message.

It's that kind of consistency that really inspires confidence, ya know? Especiallywhen followed by a pitch to sign up for Equifax's TrustedID Premier — the company's credit monitoring program — even if it is offering the service to US customers free of charge for one year.

If the internet isn't your thing, you can dial up the "dedicated call center at 866-447-7559, which the company set up to assist consumers." However, things don't seem to be going so well over there.
