TIP #2
Protect yourself from identity theft with a security freeze on your
credit report.  A security freeze prohibits, with a few exceptions, the
credit reporting agency from releasing the consumer's credit report or
any information from it without the express authorization of the
consumer.

Any consumer in ND may place a security freeze on their credit report by
requesting one through a credit reporting agency.  For identity theft
victims, this freeze is free.  For all others, a charge of $5 will be
applied for each placing or temporary lifting of a security freeze for a
specific party or specific  period of time.

To request your freeze on-line, follow the links:
