Experian spooked me

November 1st, 2024 at 11:49 pm

So remember how I said my accounts were compromised by that data leak by National Public Data breach?  Since then, I've closed a bunch of my credit cards that I wasn't using, and also signed up with Experian to help monitor my credit score.

Long story short, I got an alert not long ago saying I've got some kind of weird credit charge or whatever, on one of those presumably closed accounts.  I'm thinking to myself, "Hmm, am I misreading this?  How is this possible?"  I double checked online, and some websites are saying this could be due to a credit pull or something.  But if so, why does it show a balance, and that it's decreasing?  Anybody know?

Speaking of frights, anybody have a nice Halloween?  I accidentally slept through mine haha.  Guess I am getting old and tire more easily or something.

    Hope you get this figured out.

    Our Halloween was pretty tame. We live in the country so no masked visitors.

    Thank you. Well, I checked my balance. The way Chase works, they don't recognize any of my devices except my old cellphone. I never worked that part out, so it was just as well that I canceled my Chase cards. I digress though. Point is, I checked my balance, and everything still looks right, so I'm just going to leave it at that. Hopefully, that's the end of this October scare.
