Beware of “Free” Credit Monitoring Services. Here’s Why…

Free credit monitoring websites are infamous for sending email alerts warning that your credit scores have changed, or even worse – “dropped”. 

When you click on the email to find out why your scores have fallen, there is often no reason given.

Why? 

Because EVERY free credit monitoring website will use varying attempts to market to you so that you will pay for an upgraded account. 

These “teaser” emails often cause a bit of concern, but don’t panic. 

The content of your credit report could very well have not changed at all. It is simply a tactic of these free sites to utilize various marketing strategies to capture your interest… and your money.
