my wife's hr department got phished and sent the entire company's W2s to someone. tonight I went through the rigamarole of putting freezes on our credit repots. Experian: pretty nice and straightforward Equifax: didn't verify my identify beyond name, address, and SSN. also didn't give me a receipt for what I had to pay, but overall not horrible. TransUnion: requires you to create an account. I had to recover my account I set up like 10 years ago to buy a credit report. when I went to pay for the freeze, they defaulted the credit card number and expiration to the card number I used 10 years ago. like, not the last 4 digits. the full card number.

It was also with my Cap it alOne card which usually is pretty good about based on my experience with a crappy credit card auth vendor, here's how validation works: bad card number entered: decline over your limit: decline wrong name: decline only for some cards (I think Discover was picky on this) bad address: accepted, return a status code saying the address is wrong (speedrun tip card companies only care about the house/building number part of your address) bad zip code: accepted, return a status code saying the zip code is wrong bad cvv: accepted, return a status code saying the cvv is wrong the thing is the customer support burden for actually returning an error for bad address/zip/cvv is horrid. we had three customers of my company try turning on zip code checking because they would pay a smaller transaction fee. all three turned it off after a week because their customers were getting pissed that their cards were declined, and then they would get more pissed because it looked like they were charged multiple times when they kept trying different zip codes (they were actually just authorizations and wouldn't be collected, but of course it used up their credit limit and showed up on their statement for about a week). god I hated dealing with credit cards.
