I just got this email today: "Be advised this release takes effect on July 01, 2003. Just wanted to let everyone know who hasn't already heard, the four major credit bureaus in the U.S. will be allowed to release your credit info. Starting July 1, including mailing addresses, phone numbers, etc., to anyone who requests it. If you would like to 'opt out 'of this release of your info, you can call 1-888-567-8688. It only takes a couple of minutes to do. Once the message starts, choose option #2 (even though option #1 refers to this E-mail) and then option #3 - Be sure to listen closely, the first option is only for a two-year period. Make sure you wait until they prompt for the third option, which opts you out forever." Is this for real or a scam?
thanks, I knew it must've been discussed here but I came up empty when I tried searching for the thread.
