Credit Report Scam
Most companies that offer to give you your credit score for free are actually rebill schemes. This means they start charging your credit card a monthly fee. So be sure to cancel this and get the charges charged back.
An example of this is:
Free Credit Report
? - ?
-in the US, they run a lot of commercials with catchy tunes
My Credit Keeper
? - ?
-claim to offer your true FICO score, but isn't actually.
-Most of these so-called companies pull these scores out of their ass, because they would have to pay a fee to get your real FICO credit score.
True Credit

Depending on their promotion, it is anywhere from $10 to $15 monthly for ALL 3 credit reports and ALL 3 credit scores, updated every week (or as often as you want them pulled, up to once a week).
No hidden fees, no jokes, no bullshit... Just all 3 reports and all 3 scores.
Legitimate Credit Reporting Agencies:
Annual Credit Report

-provides your credit report details totally free but you cannot get any credit score from them. FICO or FAKO.
You get copies of all 3 of your credit bureaus reports for FREE.
Check and make sure there are no errors.
The Skinny:
The only way to get your TRUE credit score is through FICO.com or by having a bank pull it and sharing it with you.
FICO

The US federal government law requires that consumers be allowed to get their official credit score for free once per year.
Here's a free way to do it:
1. Pay your bills, credit cards, and loans off on time.
2. Check your credit for free annually through your bank.
