Should You Really Freeze Your Credit?

Let's Face the Equifax

Two-thirds of all Americans with credit reports had their
information accessed during the Equifax 'data breach.' That is
insane.


By now you've heard how the scandal is compromising millions of
Americans' personal data. Richard Smith, CEO of
Equifax, testified in front of Congress that Equifax
"...didn't really understand the severity of the breach and did
everything they could." 


Beyond this being unacceptable  for so many
reasons, it brings up a conversation around protecting
yourself in today's digital age.


 


**How Does This Data Breach Impact You & Your Future? **


 


It's time to freeze your credit.


It's not up to anyone but yourself to protect your most important
information. 
 
YOu HAVE TO BE THE ONE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR
digital SAFETY.

You are the victim. I am the victim. We're the ones left
worrying about identity theft even years from today.


 
**Freezing Your Credit Is Simple. **

I had a client come in recently worried that freezing his credit
would affect his credit score and credit tracking. It won't.


Freezing your credit stops all new credit from being taken out
unless you provide your unique PIN. Freezing it stops anyone
who may have your information from creating new credit in your
name.


The minor inconvenience of providing a PIN dramatically outweighs
the risk of having your assets and identity compromised.

lenders and their mouthpieces."
