Yes, still worthwhile. The bureaus collect all sorts of information and attach it to you regardless of whether the information is even correctly attributed. A freeze might prevent some of that nonsense. I had a difficult time getting loans to go to college many years ago. Come to find out my credit was through the floor due to all 3 agencies misattributing dozens of pages of bad loans to me starting when I was only a toddler. The middle initials & socials were 1 character off each, but it all still went to my name. Unfortunately I didn't have the knowledge to freeze my credit when I was 3 years old - my fault, I should have known I would later suffer the consequences of my inaction.
