I'm sick of thieves and fraudsters.  Unfortunately, there's no end to it.  In case anyone is planning to freeze your credit reports there's a fourth lesser known credit bureau out there that has the same general information. The 4 bureaus I've frozen mine with:  Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion are the Big3.  The fourth is Innovis, based in Columbus, Ohio.  Freezing them online is very easy.  If you have trouble doing it during day and evening because they're inundated with people trying to do the same, do it early in the morning.  I did all 4 this morning in less than 3 minutes.
