Credit Header Data: A Privacy and Security Risk

Credit bureaus sell credit headers, which contain personal information, to third-party companies. This data, including names, birth dates, addresses, and social security numbers, can be purchased by cybercriminals. A recent investigation revealed the existence of a Telegram bot that allows users to buy credit headers for $15 in Bitcoin. The information can be used for identity theft or other malicious purposes. Credit bureaus are now facing scrutiny, and new regulations may be implemented to address this vulnerability.
