Experian, the Thousand Scores people, loudly and broadly claimed that employers use credit scores.

Then, Experian (home of the fakiest, most enduring Fake-O of them all) said, "Experian's business policy prevents the inclusion of credit scores with an employment report."

Experian, pay attention. Check the blog, and the news page for assignments.

Shape up, Experian! Get your oligopolic act together and change your silly information now. Chop, chop. Hop to it. Do it now.

Experian still has it both ways.

The consumer reporting agency states that it does not sell credit scores for employment. But, while hustling the world's biggest Fake-O at another of its web sites in its far-flung (and out-of-control) empire, it states, "Credit scoring helps potential lenders, landlords, and employers quickly gauge an applicant's credit history."

Experian, consider a different, more realistic, line of work— one matching your capabilities. Your name could be used for anything, after all. How about Experian Vacuum Cleaner Sales? Or, Experian Junk Yard and Recycling? Experian Burger-Rama? Experian Auto Parts? You, of all people, should know that nothing is forever.
