'Free' Credit Reports Sometimes Aren't Free
Confusion awaits any consumer who dares tread online in search of a credit score, personal finance experts say. "It's one of the biggest rip-offs you can find." Misleading credit scores aren't the only snare. Consumers are also getting tricked into paying for basic credit reports before obtaining the ones they can get free, as mandated by the federal government in 2003. The only place those free reports are available is at AnnualCreditReport.com. Yet, dozens of websites affiliated with the bureaus falsely imply that they can also distribute the government-mandated free reports. At FreeCreditReport.com, ConsumerInfo.com, PrivacyMatters.com, Free3BureauCreditReport.com and other similarly named websites, free trial offers and package deals abound.

I've been a builder / broker for over 30 years in Denver. I have NEVER before in my life seen such an exponential proliferation of "experts" and "analysts" and "researchers" as the, seemingly, hundreds of media outlets and the internet have enabled. Who are all these people and what are their qualifications?? The Denver real estate market is fine. Denver has an expanding economy. very low unemployment, and it is Colorado!! Yet the market is slow, and I firmly believe it is due to "paralysis by analysis"; and most of this analysis is coming from people who are a long way from Denver and absolutely no understanding of the market.
