Title: Equifax Free Credit Monitoring
Post by: Hargrove on September 07, 2017, 05:45:14 PM

Well, Equifax finally got hacked. On the bright side, if you're from the US, maybe you didn't get hacked, and you get free credit monitoring now from Equifax... your uh, trusted credit security firm!

We each have a credit freeze in place with all 3 credit agencies. It's easy to do online, as are temporary thaws to facilitate opening new accounts.
