No-Cost Credit Monitoring Available
Recent news stories on data breaches have given consumers vivid examples of the many ways in which personal information can be compromised and the resulting havoc. While honest Americans are at work making a living, it has become evident that crooks are also working hard developing new ways to steal sensitive financial information for their own gain. Although no one can prevent identity theft, consumers can take steps to protect themselves against loss through early detection.
The National Foundation for Credit Counseling recently launched its Sharpen Your Financial Focus program that includes a free 12-month membership to Experian's freecreditscore.com product for eligible participants. The product includes access to the consumer's credit report and score, credit monitoring, alerts about new activity on a credit report, a mobile app, access to fraud resolution agents, the Score Planner tool for estimating the impact of financial decisions on the credit score, and a wealth of personal finance articles.
To learn more about the Sharpen Your Financial Focus program and take advantage of the freecreditscore.com product, give Consumer Credit Counseling Service of Orange County a call at 800-213-2227.
