⚠️Fraud Alerts - Alert Sharing - Extended Fraud Alerts

Writer: ava sakowskiava sakowski

Creditors who check your credit report are required to take steps to verify your identity before proceeding with any new credit transactions.


🚫When you place a fraud alert with one of the major credit reporting agencies, they notify the others, ensuring that all three agencies have the alert on file.


❓What is an Extended Fraud Alert?

👀An Extended Fraud Alert provides more comprehensive protection by placing a security freeze on your credit report.

🚫A security freeze prevents new creditors from accessing your credit file, making it more difficult for someone to open accounts in your name without your knowledge.

💡By placing a fraud alert on your credit report, you can significantly reduce the risk of unauthorized credit activity.
