I applied for a job online and they asked me to do my own credit report and send it to them? Is this common?


Wendy G asked:


I applied for a job online, and when they wrote me back they asked ME to do my credit report print it out or send the information over to them once I recieved it. Is this done often? Or am I being had? Can they recieve personal information off of my credit report besides my credit score
of course i didnt do the credit report; OR send them any information. and obviously i have never heard of it before.. or i wouldnt be asking :)

    it sounds rather odd and yes, i think your credit report has your s.s. number and probably other personal stuff like address and phone, drivers license. Anyway, i’ve never heard of this so i’d be leery of this place.
