The fact that they registered a website for this rather than hosting it through their own website is really sketchy. I know they put out a new release saying it was legitimate but it really doesn’t inspire confidence.
Also, to all affected by the breach, be sure and know that agreeing to their terms surrenders your right to join in a class action later!
There website states that the class action waiver only applies to monitoring and products, not this particular incident.
Q: “Do the TrustedID Terms of Use limit my options related to the cyber security incident?
A: The arbitration clause and class action wavier included in the TrustedID Premier Terms of Use applies to the free credit file monitoring and identity theft protection products, and not the cybersecurity incident.”
No wonder people are reluctant to give their Social’s out to agents to try to write insurance. They keep seeing these hacks. Perhaps credit scoring should be discontinued and do it the old fashioned way.
Having a little bit of difficulty in believing that the executives weren’t aware of the breach. If they did know, they are crooks and should be prosecuted. If they didn’t know, they should be fired for not knowing what the heck is going on in their own company.
Hmmm, “John Gamble and a president of a unit, sold Equifax shares or exercised options to dispose of stock worth about $17.8 million,” Sounds like something else was breached besides personal information of others. Hope the SEC gets involved.
don’t think those executives who sold off their stock were UNAWARE of what happened with the hack. they sold high and will come back and buy low or get options again while it’s low and it will come back. they should be investigated too – maybe they orchestrated the hack!
It’s time for the Sheriff to throw the book at these irresponsible agencies. But, to which political party have the executives contributed the most money? Prosecution won’t occur if they’ve bribed the right party. Watch for fines and more fines… in lieu of taking a lawsuit to its proper conclusion. Payola for the pols who’ll look the other way.
The Equifax Political Action Committee unsurprisingly has its hands in lots of pockets. Looks biased towards Republican candidates, but there are donations to major players on both sides that ensures that they always have a friend when they need one.
Chuck Schumer, Marco Rubio, Jeff Sessions, Shelley Capito, Mitch McConnell, Joe Lieberman, etc.
Just one more reason why money should stay out of politics. Not a thing but a slap on the wrist is going to happen to this company or its dirty execs who knew ahead of time what was going to happen and acted accordingly.
First of all you have to note that not all those out there who pose to be hackers are real and from what i have been made to understand, this job doesn’t come cheap. I have been a victim of fake ass hackers who took me for over five thousand dollars in bits this happened until i met this geeky fellow, the best hacker out there Captain spy (captainspyhacker2 AT gmail DOT com) just as his name implies he’s a hacking god. He helped me with my work and explain to me in details how credit score is grouped. Here are the details he revealed to me
Payment History – 35% – This is typically the first thing a potential lender will want to know. Have you paid your past accounts on time? Have you missed any payments?
Total Amounts Owed – 30% – How much you owe on each of your credit accounts. Higher amounts does not necessarily mean you are high risk, other factors are considered as well.
Length of Credit History – 15% – Generally a longer credit history will yield higher credit scores. But that’s not always the case, it also depends on how often you use your credit, and how responsibly you manage your debt.
Types of Credit in Use – 10% – Credit score providers will consider the mix of credit accounts you have, such as credit cards, retail accounts, auto loans, mortgages etc.
New Credit – 10% – Lenders want to know if you’ve recently been applying for many credit accounts in a short period of time. That can often represent a greater risk to the lender. captainspyhacker2 AT gmail DOT com was the programmer behind my credit boost and what I outlined here was a some tips about credit score that was included in my boost package
My husband and I were investigating as to how we can bring our credit score up from 576. It has plummeted since November 2013 due to collections that we aren’t sure what they are for. There are 7 collection action items and today I was served with a summons from Cap One for an unpaid credit card. I have 20 days to respond, I had no choice but to solve this problem myself, so I make research and found this credit coach cyber hack, I contact him via gmail (cyberhack005) and asked
1.Can you remove all the negative on my credits
2.How long will it take you to get the job done
3.Will the correction reflect on my score. and he answered my questions respectively:1.Yes I can 2. 72 hours 3.It will reflect on every credit agency file. I give him a try and he made my dream come through in a short period of time..This is awesome!

Insider trading? At least those guys won’t need a high credit score while they are in prison.
Discovered in July and just now making it public?
Perplexed, something smells very fishy on this.
Have other credit rating agencies such as Dun and Bradstreet changed the credit rating of Equifax?

Sherriff, wonder why the hackers are always one step ahead? They are better geeks than company geeks and the damage is done time after time.
Spies.
Campaign finance records are public information.
