Equifax had a warm message for its Twitter followers this morning.
The official @AskEquifax Twitter account published a tweet wishing everyone a “Happy Friday!”
It would have been nice and probably ignored by almost everyone, except it came a day after Equifax admitted a breach that impacts as many as 143 million Americans.
Most folks probably woke up this morning and tried to figure out if they had their social security numbers, addresses and credit card details stolen.
The tweet, since deleted, read: “Happy Friday! You’ve got Stevie ready and willing to help with your customer service needs today!”
Stevie?

CNBC attempted to reach Equifax for comment but a spokesperson was not immediately available.
