Hi all. I received a letter from the Colorado Department of Labor indicating that an unemployement PIN had been issued to me. I followed the instructions provided by CU by reporting it as fraud to the CO Dept. of Labor. I did not have the best experience with Equifax. They were pushy with their identity protection products. I had a much better experience with Experian. I put a fraud alert on my profile using their automated system on the phone and they indicated that they will notify Equifax and TransUnion. The local police department said that they really don't get involved in this matter, but I could contact the FBI if I wanted to pursue it further. I did not do so. Lastly, I submited a fraud claim with FTC as recommended. Thank you to CU Systems Admin for providing these very useful guidelines.
