It may serve a a good reminder to those who may use credit. I actually don't know anyone (else) that reads those "warnings" such as I posted.......They all have 'em.

Yeah, I didn't think I had done business with them and I suppose I could wait until/if I get a letter in the mail. But I don't think there's much harm...knock wood!
Someone Made a Fake Equifax Site. Then Equifax Linked to It.
From the New York Times-
People create fake versions of big companies’ websites all the time, usually for phishing purposes. But the companies do not usually link to them by mistake.
Equifax, however, did just that after Nick Sweeting, a software engineer, created an imitation of equifaxsecurity2017.com, Equifax’s page about the security breach that may have exposed 143 million Americans’ personal information. Several posts from the company’s Twitter account directed consumers to Mr. Sweeting’s version, securityequifax2017.com. They were deleted after the mistake was publicized.

A bunch of lazy, unregulated, seemingly unpublishable, clowns.

So true...Equifax, what a bunch of sleezy business people. When I did my credit freeze with Equifax, the first thing they do is try to get you to sign up for the credit monitoring service at $4.99 for the first month and $24.99 per month after that. WTF...they lose my information, then try to get me to pay for them to protect it.
I put a freeze on my credit. That closes that opportunity for theft.

Not exactly. They still might raid an existing bank account. They might file for a tax refund using your identity. They might ... and on and on. A freeze on new credit helps but fails to solve the problem.

YES!
I have long had mine frozen. Yet, in a matter of minutes this morning, almost $3000.00 was hacked from two of my accounts using information they may or may not have derived from the Equifax hack. Fortunately I have put every safeguard my bank offers on these two accounts. I spent several hours in my bank this morning. Thankfully they have extended their Saturday hours. I expect to recover money hacked and the various fees waived; however, that process doesn't start till Monday.
