I had some goofy stuff show up on my credit report. I had to pay for the
report, too. It listed me as having worked for someone I never worked for;
had my work address as my home address (who at home has a 'suite' number?);
had me owing money for trash pickup when I lived in apartments where it's
included in the rent. Then of course MCI 'slammed' me for long distance
charges when I never used them for anything, let alone long distance. They
would only take 3 months of charges off my bill because I didn't notice it
sooner - it was only a buck or so a month so I didn't notice it right away.
