    Here in the States you are allowed to request a free Credit report from the Big 3 once a year.

    Please do not get this confused with a Credit Score. For the U.K. and Australia I bet you have something similar. Chime in if you wish.

    A Credit Score is an indication of how much and how well/timely you pay Interest. And unless you are looking to finance something it is useless IMO.

    A Credit Report tells you past (up to 15 years, I think) and present which entities you have/do owe money to. Also, your payment history. On time, late, delinquent, etc…

    A Credit Report is a good way to know if someone has stolen your identity and borrowed money in your name….

    There are the big three, Experian, Trans Union and Equifax. There are three and there are 12 months so, every 4 months I hit one (rotate) to get a report.

    I look for new s~~~ that I have no knowledge of. I have not found anything yet but better safe than sorry.

    In fact in my E-Calendar I setup reminders.

    There is a Fed sponsored site that helps with this. I am not going to paste a link for fear of looking like shifty motherf~~~er.

    Do your own research. Do not pm me either. If you do your research you will find a .gov site that will point you to the easy way. Or the site of any of the big three.

    Cheers!

    The sad fact of the matter about identity theft is you cannot protect yourself from identity theft because the corporations and governments whom collect information about you, without your permission, are either having those secrets stolen, or selling those secrets.

    True.
    However, I have siblings and assorted family that know my info (I didn’t share it).

    True story:
    A couple of decades ago my junkie brother got pulled over, he had warrants for his arrest. He explained to the cop that he had no ID. He gave the cop my name and SSN. Of course he knew my SSN, it was stored in a box in the closet. The cop finger printed him and let him go.

    Later, I had a warrant for my arrest, it came in the mail.

    I had to take a day off from work, go down to the police station and get finger printed. A finger print geek later informed the po-po that I was not the guilty one.

    Do not take this s~~~ lightly.

    A Credit Score is an indication of how much and how well/timely you pay Interest. And unless you are looking to finance something it is useless IMO.

    Part of its measurement is on-time payments, but has nothing to do with interest. I use my credit cards to pay for everything and have auto-pay set up on all of them to pay off the entire balance each month, claiming my rewards while paying $0 in interest.

    Using Credit Karma will give you free weekly updates from two of the three major credit bureaus (Trans Union and Equifax). If nothing unusual is showing up in either of those, you should be golden. It used to just be Trans Union and expanded to include Equifax, so maybe it will include Experian in the future.

    I’ve been happy with their website and app for years. No complaints.

    Also, your credit score can be used against you on more than just applications for loans. It can be used in the hiring process by prospective employers and also landlords if you’re looking to rent.

    It’s a good idea to keep your credit score healthy at all times, just in case you need it.

    Of course it does. Maybe not directly.
    Loan -> Payment on time until paid off -> Interest.
    Loan -> Payment not on time -> No Interest on Time.
    Loan -> Payment defaulted -> No Interest -> Debt Collection Agency -> Pennies on the dollar.

    Sorry, Spice in reality ‘Credit Score’ is all about interest paid, no matter how it is spun.

    At one time I had a super high Credit Score, idk what it is now. But at one time I borrowed money and made my payments religiously.

    I have not paid interest in decades but I suspect my ‘credit score’ is s~~~ b/c of it.

    No one is spinning anything. I pay $0 in interest for years yet have on-time payments on 5 credit cards for the same time period. My scores average a little over 800 (will improve after a couple hard inquiries drop off this spring).

    I understand that for many people and credit situations there may be interest involved, but I’m living proof that you need pay NO interest and can still have a stellar credit rating.

    Stop borrowing money and see what happens to your Credit Score!
    B/C you are disciplined enough to not pay interest doesn’t mean the scam is not real.

    I have a cash-back card that I payoff every other week. No interest, cash back on s~~~ I buy.

    However, most people are not you and I.
    I have ZERO debt and have not paid interest in over a decade (perhaps more than one). IDK what my credit score is and I don’t care. Interest is for suckers.

    If you have zero debt and pay Zero Interest and ‘borrow’ money you are a rare and disciplined breed. Most are not like this.

    In other words, it is a f~~~ing scam. Just b/c you don’t fall for it doesn’t make it less of a scam. Indeed, it makes you a smart motherf~~~er.

    The don’t lend money is almost (if not more) important as don’t borrow.

    If you feel generous; Give. Never loan.

    A person that you loan money to will instantly become your enemy.
    Sometimes, being generous and giving is almost as bad but never loan.

    Ghost! And like Skipper sang above, a borrower nor lender be.

    HA! HA! A small Oklahoma municipality Took my
    Private identity document and have not as of yet
    returned it.

    Is that identity theft?

    HA! HA! HA!

    I have been using my fathers identity
    I renewed the Texas license and took
    custody of that legal person in the spirit
    of my creator by signing my fathers name
    on the paper temp license and swore out a
    warrant for myself executed it on the envelope
    that the hard copy plastic drivers licence
    came in without opening it.

    It is a felony to open mail that belongs to
    someone other than your self. I give everything
    to my heavenly creator he owns that envelope
    not me.

    I will show the paper license that is
    endorsed with my fathers signature.
    When they look at the signature and ask
    who signed it I will not be lying when
    I say with a smile:
    “My father who art in heaven signed it.” HA! HA! HA!
    His flesh may be dead but his wit and
    spirit will always be alive in me.
    I am but the son of a funny man and,
    His new mortal manly meat-sack.
    A&men

    I was bound to be misunderstood, and I laugh at those who misunderstand me. Kind mockery at the well intentioned, but unfettered cruelty towards those would be prison guards of my creative possibilities. This so as to learn as much from misunderstanding as from understanding. Taking pleasure in worthy opponents and making language fluid and flowing like a river yet pointed and precise as a dagger. Contradicts the socialistic purpose of language and makes for a wonderful linguistic dance, A verbal martial art with constant parries that hone the weapon that is the two edged sword of my mouth.

    Perhaps you should not admit to that on a public forum?
    Not judging, just suggesting you should stay mute on the subject.

    Should have said He has been
    spiritually guiding my flesh
    to use his own Identity.

    He is self evidently my heavenly creator.

    He is not fearful of public forums or public
    courts.

    There is not a court on earth ready for a man
    in the spirit of his father.

    I may be in a public forum but not as
    a public person.

    I am forbidden by my religious beliefs
    from holding any public office including
    the office of public person.

    I am an exclusively private person.

    I can only exercise private rights.

    according to the supreme court the
    regulation of private rights is redundant
    to the constitution.

    My father is my public defender and legal
    guardian.

    Please bring on your judgement,
    or the judgment of any authority
    on this planet.

    He would love to ask where they gained his
    consent to regulate and rule his property.
    He owns the flesh of his only begotten
    son as well as his own Identity documents
    and that truth is self evident.

    He will not be joking or lying
    about the charge of identity theft
    against them first.

    Follow the thieves by pointing at who
    wants the product of your time of life.

    They claimed ownership of my personal
    private identity for the purpose of placing
    government created public debt against it.

    Another constitutional NO NO

    The Taking of private property for
    public use without compensation or
    due process of law.

    I just followed my religious beliefs
    and give everything to my god and asked
    him to handle it. I have no authority
    for I am but a slave to the spirit
    of my earthly father who could
    only be alive in his own kingdom
    of heaven on earth.

    Winston McKinney is not gonna hide
    now that he has been reborn in the flesh
    of his son. He is gonna pick his son up
    like the footprints in the sand poem
    and carry me the rest of my life so
    I stop making public tracks.

    They have to admit he is alive
    or refuse to talk to him.

    He is waiting to see what they choose.

    He is very patient

    My Bible says he is entitled to a
    crown of life.

    One nation under gods heavenly law.

    If their own written earthly laws are correct
    and adhered to it is written all governance
    gains its “JUST” authority from the consent
    of the governed. I am without authority to
    consent. A slave has no authority. I am the
    exclusively private slave of my father’s
    spirit.

    Love and respect to all without prejudice.

    They can only get to my father by
    coming through me his son I will
    always be him publicly and me
    privately because a man’s privacy
    includes the right to be left alone
    even by his government. 1974 privacy
    act. its law too.

    He can live by being a public person of the people,
    for the people and if the people
    vote or choose hold office by the people.

    Government OF, FOR and BY the people. HA! HA! HA!

    I claim my exclusively private unalienable creator given rights including this as my right to pursue
    happiness.
    When the lord is with you (in person)
    Who can be against you?

    I figured out how to get god to help me testify
    my self evident truth and broke the code of the
    swearing in process.

    do you swear to tell the truth, the whole
    truth and nothing but the truth so help
    you GOD! “YES GOD IS SO HELPING ME”

    Judge I am so challenging subject matter
    jurisdiction and seeking political refugee
    status in my fathers kingdom as well as
    taking the 5th and remaining silent, But
    I do have someone who guards me legally.

    My public defender and legal guardian who
    said he would never leave me or forsake me.

    My original custodian who has never released
    me from his legal lawful custody.

    He will speak on my behalf if and when the court
    ever proves that it has proper subject matter
    jurisdiction over a man domiciled in his fathers
    kingdom of heaven on earth. I am a subject of my fathers kingdom for he promised me a permanent
    residency in heaven.

    I don’t have to live like a refugee
    But taking political refugee
    status in heaven is great.

    Identity theft is the largest world wide government
    instituted scam.

    I do not own nor do I desire to own
    anything on this earth period.

    Not even my own private identity or flesh.

    They may Keep the identity and the publicly
    created debt they attached to it.

    They lead me to falsely believe My identity documents
    correctly identified me and I owned exclusive rights
    to the use of said identity document.

    The SSN assigned by the social security administration
    belongs to the government agency that issued the number
    and card. I cannot own something unless given exclusive
    authority over its use. The authority to exclude anyone and everyone from regulating, controlling or making mandatory its disclosure.

    Sorry but Identity theft is a touchy subject with me
    when I refuse to borrow or create debt for many years
    and work to pay off debt that I did not create for many years and at 55 years old still find myself deep in government created debt.

    I do not even show up on credit scores or background checks.
    People who check always ask:
    “how come is there nothing on your report?”
    All I can tell them is I do not have
    a credit history because I do not buy
    things on credit. (only cash)

    My father should open a bank account
    and establish some credit as a non
    profit DBA of mine.

    That just came to me
    and is a good idea.
    Use my name and his number
    to register a (DBA) doing business as his name. NON-PROFIT ministry
    A 501c3 tax exempt charitable corp.

    Thanks Grue for starting a thread
    about this subject that kinda gets
    under my craw.

    WOW I like it.
    My church, of my God.
    with no building,
    only the temple
    he created.
    Legal and lawful
    once registered.

    Grue you have a special place
    in my fathers kingdom if you
    believe he lives in person.

    This topic was a blessing

    A father and Son ministry
    state registered corporation.

    The father publicly fronts
    the business and compensates
    the son with only what he needs.

    The son is Honest when claiming
    to work for the lord at a non
    profit ministry.

    I am not making a profit if
    only working for my needs,
    because everything over and above
    what I need, belongs to my
    heavenly father or father who
    could only be living in heaven.

    He is a funny man to plan my salvation
    in such a way. I have faith this idea
    is him guiding me.

    Thank you Jesus A&men

    Always log out after online purchases. Don’t throw all your bills intact into a shared rubbish bin.

    Apart from that it’s not something I worry about much, we are protected by the vendor if the theft is via our bank account/credit cards. However if I was worth serious money I’d think about identity theft protection (insurance).
