how to protect your credit

this is a simple way to make sure your info and credit is not stolen from this hack of equifax

You can use one of these sites to put a free 90 day fraud alert on your credit. You only need to do it on one site they are supposed to notify the other 2 but I don’t trust them so I did all 3.
