The credit repair industry is about to change for good

BCR Consulting has introduced to the market a new business model that could change forever the bad opinions that the Federal Trade Commission have about the credit repair industry.

NextAdvisor.com, a leading provider of free consumer information, is launching their new  "Fraud Alert and Credit Freeze Guide." The new guide is meant to educate consumers on how to use fraud alerts and credit freezes to protect their identities.

"Our research has shown that many consumers are aware of fraud alerts and credit freezes but may be confused about how to use them," said NextAdvisor.com's Vice President of Research, Joe Fahrner. "The guide is meant to provide detailed explanations of fraud alerts and credit freezes including who should use them, how to set them up and what they can do to prevent identity theft."

The new "Fraud Alert and Credit Freeze Guide" explains how both fraud alerts and credit freezes can be used as effective tools in identity theft protection.

"Fraud alerts and credit freezes are not silver bullets in preventing identity theft," said Fahrner.  "But, they can be very effective in stopping new account fraud, one of the most financially debilitating types of identity theft."
