I did because last year I got a call from a Credit Union In CA that said they think my identity was stolen. Someone had applied to them for a loan with my SS and info. So they ran a credit check on me and noticed 2 other credit inquiries on me. Six credit unions had recent loan applications on me. I contacted them all and send letters to them. I found the six on a credit report. I froze my credit on the 3 sites and signed up for two credit monitoring services. All of the fraudulent applications used an old address of mine with a miss spelled last name. I did a change of address on that address and did receive some forwarding mail. Thought it was interesting the applied to credit unions.- must have more success there. I have since unfroze one due to applying for a car loan. Have not refroze but will soon.
