Hackers may have stolen every social security number

So a small essay on the freezing process.

Transunion- Easy had account found the button and froze it within 3-4min.

Equifax. Had account their texting code was broken.. got around that.. and their freeze button was broken..
literally says "cant determine the status of your credit freeze try later"
Called on phone took 10min.. or about 25min total to figure that out.

Experian. Go to log in.. text code works.. but giant ad that makes you want to click for the 0.00 credit monitoring that costs 26.66 per month.. login button right below that sorta plain text.
fart around for 15min cant find govt. mandated freeze button.
google for a few more mins..
eventually find it under your account/ help / quick actions
about 20min.

Hope that helps someone.

You know darn well anyone obsessing over oil changes is for sure going to have the latest security update.

I am waiting for the secure BITOG digital wallet.

I'm in the Beta test program for Bobs bucks, but I've been having a hard time getting stores like Costco to accept it

Our politicians are a crime gang.

Unfortunately they have BEEN a crime gang since the 1920s and have only gotten better at covering it up. OOPs, my mistake. NOT Better , they just realized they can be caught with 100% proven evidence , still no one will demand prosecution. We could list 100 scandals in DC over the last 10 years that no one is even investigating.

Is freezing your credit on all three websites required? Freezing it on just one doesn't work?

Are they gonna send me some money?

Yes, they just need your bank account number and a few minor items.

Thanks for the details you encountered. Should make it easy for some of us when we try the same.
