The Tiny Warning Signs Your Account May Already Be Compromised

On today’s KSL News Daily, Maria Shilaos digs into the password alerts, login notices, and shipping messages most of us delete without a second thought. Sloan Schrage from the Investigates team explains why those small warnings can be the first sign that hackers are testing your information, often after an email or password has been exposed in a data breach.

The takeaway is practical: do not click suspicious links, do not assume every alert is harmless, and do not reuse passwords across your most important accounts. Sloan walks through how to check whether your credentials have been exposed, why you should go directly to a website instead of following a link, and what to do if a password that worked yesterday suddenly does not work today.

Plus, Utah heads into a hotter holiday weekend, therapy dogs bring relief to firefighters grieving the deaths of three colleagues, thousands of high school students take part in a major prayer walk, and Before You Go introduces Robert Buchert, a Utah artist who spent months recreating the first printed Declaration of Independence by hand, down to the paper, type, ink, and imperfections that made the original historic.
