Pre-approved Credit Offers
For many people, pre-approved credit offers are
common form of "junk mail". If a pre-approved offer
falls into the wrong hands, it can be used to commit identity theft,
provided the thief also finds out other things, such as your Social
Security number or date of birth.
To
opt out of pre-approved credit offers with Experian, Trans Union, and
Equifax:
Call 1-888-5OPT-OUT (1-888-567-8688) and
