Looking on the Internet, you will find many sites offering you a Free Credit Report and Score Online. There are many things to take into consideration before signing up with any of these services. Some so called Free Credit Report sites found Online are scams! Other Free Credit Report Agencies while not scams, will require you to sign up for some type of free trial program or offer that you need to remember to cancel or end up paying a fee for the continued service. Still other Free Credit Report and Score web sites will end up selling your e-mail address and home address to others who will send you spam e-mails and junk mail to your home. As you can see, in many cases, that Free Credit Report isn't really free at all!
