got a letter yesterday from wyndham saying there had been a 'data security incident involving your personal information.' the letter did not state which hotel chain it was--and, frankly, i can't remember staying at a wyndham this year, although i did have a friend who stayed at a days inn...maybe that was it.
basically, after apologizing profusely but vaguely, the letter offers a free year of equifax credit watch using a promotional code, and 20% off room stays at a wyndham hotel if i book before march 31st...
just wondering if anyone else got this.
edited to add: i just called the toll-free number on the letter, and the girl i spoke with wasn't particularly helpful. for example, when i asked what hotel it was, or what chain within wyndham, she only said 'we don't have that information' over and over, and wasn't able to tell me who
might have that information. she did say that the breach occurred in september (the letter said this as well) and they just concluded an investigation involving the credit card companies, which is how they got my name/address and why it took three months to tell people about this.
