One Kind of Credit Fraud
There's more than one kind of credit fraud. Yeah, identity thieves have become a real problem in this country. But actually what I am thinking of in this post is another type of credit fraud.
Today I noticed the cost of one of those "Credit Watch" services offered by a credit reporting agency. It was $100. a year.
Let me get this straight; I pay them $100. a year to try and keep them from causing the kind of mistakes that they shouldn't be making in the first place -- like selling consumer's credit info to ChoicePoint.
Yeah, Right....
