Why you received this letter
Cardinal Services, Inc., Cardinal Employer Organization, and Preferred Employer Solutions, collectively operating as Cardinal, recently suffered a cybersecurity incident that compromised sensitive data entrusted to their systems.

Formal breach documentation regarding this incident was officially filed with the Texas Attorney General on May 22, 2026, though the total number of affected records has not been publicly disclosed. When personal information is exposed in a corporate data breach, cybercriminals can exploit these records to commit identity theft, open unauthorized financial accounts, or redirect tax and employment documents. Because this data often includes full names, Social Security numbers, and contact details, victims face a heightened and ongoing risk of targeted phishing scams and financial fraud.
