In case you haven't heard, Equifax was recently hacked, affecting ~143 million U.S. consumers.
The information accessed primarily includes names, Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses and, in some instances, driver�s license numbers. Criminals also accessed credit card numbers for approximately 209,000 U.S. consumers, and certain dispute documents with personal identifying information for approximately 182,000 U.S. consumers. As part of our investigation of this application vulnerability, we also identified unauthorized access to limited personal information for certain UK and Canadian residents. We have found no evidence that personal information of consumers in any other country has been impacted.
To help consumers determine if their information has been potentially impacted and to sign up for credit file monitoring and identity theft protection. TrustedID Premier includes five separate offerings, all complimentary.

After signing up today (they ask for your last name and last 6 digits of your SSN, nothing else), they gave me an enrollment date 3 days from now, instructing to return to faq.trustedidpremier.com to continue the enrollment process.
I'll report back if there's anything significant to report about it, but just thought I'd share, 'cause, you know... free stuff. Plus ID theft... been there; it sucks.
