Free Credit Report Verification
2010
Has anyone tried Http://www.FreeCreditReport.com????????
My husband tried it and had to use his debit card for sign up…in order to get a so called “free” credit report. The debit card was supposed to be for verification purposes. Well I just found out that they have been taking money from our account every month since he signed up for the free credit report. Just warning you it’s a scam if you are thinking of trying it DONT. I emailed them and threatened to report them to the Better Business Bureau Http://www.BBB.org and they immediately emailed back that they were sorry had cancelled my membership. Today a guy from free credit report called and said he had issed a refund to me. If you have tried it the debit will show up on your bank account statement as CIC* Triple Advantage. Remember, if it’s free they won’t need a debit car.

People have a hard time believing the fact that a web site name has no real meaning. they see free and think it menas free. The same way if a box pops up and says do you want to install spyware and pop up ads on your computer yes or no. If you chooses no the actual command is yes. the name on a button has no relation to what the button actually does.
It is important to read all the disclosures when giving out your credit card.

Also never use a debit card online. An error could clean out your account and cause checks or payments to bounce. A credit card gives you more notice about the charge.
I recommend getting one low limit credit card for use “only”online or even better sign up for a CITI card.
They have the option for true virtual credit card numbers the dollar value and expiration date 2-12 months are picked by you. In the case of verification you can create a card worth $1.00 and that is it if they try to charge more it will be denied.
