You could freeze your credit with Equifax, if you're not looking to take out new credit lines. It costs money, but I've heard it pretty much stops them from making money off your info. That's why the credit agencies are pushing things like "credit locks," which don't have legal mandates behind them meaning they can design the service to suit themselves.

- paulie_a 9y agoPersonally I would want them to not keep any records on me at all. They are a financial stalker for others
- nofinator 9y agoI believe Equifax and others are offering a free credit freeze through June 30. Here's the clearest description I could find: https://www.nerdwallet.com/blog/finance/equifax-credit-freeze/ https://www.nerdwallet.com/blog/finance/equifax-credit-freez... However, I'm not an expert and I'd like to hear more about this.
