Can I place a credit freeze for someone else?

Asked 6 months ago
No, you cannot place a credit freeze for someone else. A credit freeze can only be initiated and managed by an individual for their own credit file. Placing a freeze on someone else's credit without their consent is illegal and unethical. Each person is responsible for their own credit and has the right to control access to their personal information. Equifax Freeze Line allows individuals to easily freeze their credit to protect against unauthorized access and identity theft. By contacting Equifax directly, individuals can take necessary steps to safeguard their credit information and prevent fraudulent activities.
