The job of the credit agency is to collect information to furnish credit reports on an individual's credit history. Its income comes from selling this information to various business concerns. The credit information is based on monthly accounts that you may have with businesses and on your general payment record. If there is fraudulent information on your report, you may have it corrected by contacting the credit bureau and explaining to them the problem. You can ask the credit to put a "fraud alert" on your record. Under federal law, they must report the fraud.
