A friend just sent me the following hard-to-believe e-mail and I'm wondering if it's true or if it's some sort of scam whereby that "888" phone number charges a fee. Does anyone know? "Starting July 1st, 2003, the four major credit bureaus
in the US (Equifax,etc) will be allowed to release
credit info, mailing addresses, phone numbers, etc.,
to ANYONE who requests it. If you do not want to be
included in this release of your personal information,
you can call 1-888-567-8688.
Once the message starts you will want option #2
(even though option #1 refers to this email, push #2)
and then option #3.
Be sure to listen closely, the first option is only for
a two-year period.
Make sure you wait until they prompt for the third option, which opts you out FOREVER."
