Placing a fraud alert on your credit reports is free. Click here to place an initial one-year fraud alert or active duty alert on your Equifax credit report online by creating a myEquifax account. Once your fraud alert or active duty alert is placed, you can also check its status through myEquifax.

You can contact any of the three nationwide credit bureaus to request an initial fraud alert or active duty alert. Once you have placed an initial fraud alert or active duty alert on your credit report with one of the bureaus, that bureau will send a request to the other two bureaus to do the same, so you do not have to contact all three. 

You can also request an initial one-year fraud alert or active duty alert:

  • By calling: 1-800-525-6285; or

P.O. Box 105069
Atlanta, GA 30348-5069
  
If you have been a victim of identity theft and have a police and/or identity theft report (available at www.identitytheft.gov), you have the right to request a seven-year extended fraud alert on your credit reports.  To submit your request, please download and follow the instructions on the Extended Fraud Alert form.

If you see information on your credit reports you believe is incomplete or inaccurate, a good first step is to contact the lender or creditor directly. This is especially helpful if the information involves your name or address. Updating your personal information with lenders and creditors can help ensure the information reported to the three nationwide credit bureaus—Equifax, Experian and TransUnion – is correct.

If you need to dispute information with the credit bureaus, the fastest way to do so is online. You’ll need to file a dispute separately with each credit bureau. 

You can file a dispute on the following sites:

A security freeze is one step you can take to help prevent access to your Equifax credit report to open new credit accounts, with certain exceptions.  

Security freezes are federally regulated, and a security freeze must be temporarily lifted or permanently removed each time you apply for new credit. Click here to learn more about how to place, temporarily lift, or permanently remove a security freeze on your credit reports.

Placing, temporarily lifting and permanently removing a security freeze (also known as a credit freeze) on your Equifax credit report is free. 

To freeze your credit reports at the other two nationwide credit bureaus, you will need to contact Experian (www.experian.com/freeze) and TransUnion (freeze.transunion.com).

A fraud alert is a notice on your credit report that alerts creditors you may be a victim of fraud, including identity theft. A fraud alert can make it harder for someone to open unauthorized accounts in your name. It encourages lenders and creditors to take extra steps to verify your identity, such as contacting you by phone, before opening a new credit account in your name or making changes to existing accounts.
 
There are two types of fraud alerts you can place on your credit report, and both are free.

•    Initial fraud alert: If you believe you are or may become a victim of fraud or identity theft, you may place an initial fraud alert on your credit report. An initial fraud alert remains on your credit report for one year, unless you choose to remove it sooner, and can be renewed for additional one-year periods.
•    Extended fraud alert: If you have a police report or a Federal Trade Commission Identity Theft Report showing you’re a victim of identity theft, you may place an extended fraud alert on your credit report. An extended fraud alert remains on your credit report for seven years unless you choose to remove it sooner. Click here for the extended fraud alert form. 
 
You can contact any of the three nationwide credit bureaus to request a fraud alert. Once you have you placed a fraud alert on your credit report with one of the bureaus, that bureau will send a request to the other two bureaus to do the same, so you do not have to contact all three.

  4. The Identity Theft Insurance benefit is underwritten and administered by American Bankers Insurance Company of Florida, an Assurant company, under group or blanket policies issued to Equifax, Inc., or its respective affiliates for the benefit of its Members.
