Wait until someone uses your name and social to open a new telephone account with four phone lines and three cell phones in your name. That's what happened to me several years ago. Never again. Thankfully, the credit card company called me and we stopped it. When I called the mobile phone company responsible and inquired why they didn't ask for ID from the new subscriber, they said the transaction was done by phone. Ever since, I have locked my credit report and never had another problem. With Equifax, all you do is go online and check unlock report. Very easy.
