Consumer Reports: Information Brokers
Federal law allows all consumers to obtain one free specialty consumer report per year from major specialty reporting agencies. If someone has used your name and Social Security number for employment purposes, get healthcare, etc., you will not find that information on your credit report. It is a good idea to check these information brokers to see what information is collected and sold about you.
