Description

Press release from the Town of Salem: June 15, 2022 Recently the Town was notified by our former ambulance billing company, COMSTAR, of a data security event to COMSTAR's computer network. This may have compromised personally identifiable information (PII) for anyone who was transported by the Salem Fire Department Ambulance between 2010 & 2017. The security event did not affect any of the Town of Salem computer network systems. If you have been affected, you will or may have already received a letter from COMSTAR via their law firm with a Portland, Oregon return address. THIS IS NOT A SCAM. Please follow the guidance provided in the letter if you have questions and to access the credit monitoring tools provided by COMSTAR. Please contact COMSTAR with any questions; they can be reached at 877-587-2480. An example letter can be viewed here. This press release was produced by the Town of Salem.
