FYI you can (theoretically) setup a "Fraud Alert" which is free, and lasts for 90 days. I set this up shortly after the news broke, however failed to enroll my wife as their (all 3) phone systems were f*cked.
- vkou 9y agoI assure you, your SSN, and date of birth are unlikely to change in the next 90 days.
- josefresco 9y agoUh what now? I'm not following...
- fma 9y agoI think vkou is implying you need to do this every 90 days (which from my understanding, is what Life Lock does).
- tbugrara 9y agoHe's saying after the 90 days is up, you'll still be vulnerable (because your SSN/DOB won't change). Better to just freeze indefinitely and lift when necessary unless you know you're going to be opening a new account soon.
- josefresco 9y agoI get that - I was just sharing the information about a Fraud Alert, which unlike a "freeze" is free and allows you to still apply for credit without lifting the alert.
