Think you've experienced identity theft?
Identity theft occurs when someone steals your personal information and uses it without your consent to take your money,
open credit accounts and more. If this has happened to you, here are the next steps you should take.
Review your credit report
You can pull your Experian™ credit report for free once a year with Chase Credit Journey®. Review it for fraudulent accounts and unauthorized transactions, and check the accuracy of your personal information, like address and Social Security number.
Notify Experian™, Transunion® and Equifax® directly if anything is incorrect.

Put an alert on your account
Ask the three credit reporting agencies (Experian™, Transunion® and Equifax®) to place a fraud alert and security freeze on your file. A fraud alert notifies anyone pulling your credit file that you may be a victim of fraud.
A security freeze prevents credit loans and services from being opened in your name without your approval.
