Their files have everything on every person that has applied for credit. Sadly the only ones that will actually benefit from this is the plaintiff's attorneys that I can assure you are climbing all over each other to represent customers in a class action lawsuit. I hope Equifax has a lot of cash and insurance because they are going to need it. Providing free credit reports is not even close to sufficient. They are going to have to pay for this.
On another note, apparently their execs dumped a bunch of stock right before the release of this information. The SEC should investigate and if they engaged in insider trading they need to go to prison.
All I can say is watch your credit and if you don't have something like Lifelock you might want to get it.....or wait and see if they offer it or a similar service as part of the settlement. Of course by then your credit could be ruined but its a numbers game......you are one out of 143 million.......do you feel lucky?
