Thanks, - Daina I heard this on the grapevine: The nation's three credit reporting companies -- Equifax, Experian and TransUnion -- have set up a system that will enable identity fraud victims to protect their credit information by making one toll-free call to any of them, the Consumer Data Industry Association said yesterday. When an identity fraud victim calls any of the credit reporting companies, the company will alert the other two. Then each company will post a security alert on the victim's credit file; opt the victim out of preapproved credit or insurance offers; and mail the victim a copy of his or her credit file. The companies' toll-free numbers are: Equifax, 1-800-525-6285; Experian, 1-888-397-3742; and TransUnion, 1-800-680-7289. _______________________________________________ NW-LEO mailing list NW-LEO@private http://lists.whiteknighthackers.com/mailman/listinfo/nw-leo
