Whoa! Interesting. And a little spooky. Are credit scores public knowledge?

They are mining for memberships!!!!
The data immediately available is incorrect. For me, they say my house is in the $600-$800k range, but my neighborhood is "below average." Does that even make sense? And they have my birth sign wrong. Basic stuff. They also say I am a "clerical/service worker." WRONG! But if you click a link for more info, then it brings you to the prices for membership. So...scam? Sort of.

Hey Michele,
I do not think credit scores are public knowledge, and sure feel they should never be unless for some strange reason (like alien invasion for those with the lowest scores) we the public decide there might be some benefit in that. :-)
The internet is becoming a free-for-all. Ugh.
The data they posted about me seemed more like a combination of all people with my surname.
It might be a hoot in some circumstances, but not this one.
