Google Confirms Breach 8-29-25
Recent articles confirm that Google has been the victim of a successful hack, resulting in the exposure of passwords and personal information for 2.5 billion users.
What should you do?
Google recommends that everyone change their Gmail account passwords and enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) using tools such as Microsoft Authenticator, which is free to use.
While no actions have been taken with the exposed information yet, there are concerns that the hacking group may leak these passwords to other hackers. This could increase the likelihood of attempts to access your accounts.

Unsolicited Mail
We have received several inquiries regarding unsolicited mail offering home warranties and various other products. Please be advised that NCCYou does not engage in any such solicitation. However, because we are listed on the mortgage records, it may appear that we are sending out this marketing literature.
Why did I receive this?
Unfortunately, various companies search through County Recorder listings for newly recorded mortgages, which is public information they can use to target individuals. Given the decline in mortgage business over the past year, it seems these companies have also begun to scour historical recordings.
Please understand that this is not from NCCYou, so please disregard it or conduct your own research if you are interested.
As always, if you are ever in question about the legitimacy of communication from NCCYou, please reach out to us for validation.
