Seeing red over credit reports


I WAS surprised to receive a letter from a credit information and rating company telling me it had collected my personal and credit risk assessment information and that this would be provided to their subscribers which include financial institutions, multinational corporations, government agencies, business and credit grantors.

I am 67 years old and was quite surprised to learn that all of a sudden I am on their radar. I don’t know if other similar companies that provide such information to the said institutions, corporations and government agencies have done that on me.
