Thank you. I did call them. I just wondered if anybody else that has a Medtronic pacemaker got the letter and if they did anything that was mentioned in the letter to protect their identity further.

Yes, i also received a letter from Medtronic. I already have credit freezes on my accounts with the three credit bureaus so didnt do anything further.
