But Barnett warns buyers beware. She says, “that you can get these free credit reports but what they are going to do is give you something you can already get for free then secondly they are going to try to sell you a bundle or package of services that are directly related to protecting you from identity theft." She goes on to say that those services are steps you can take on your own without paying.The federal government requires all three of the major credit reporting agencies, Transunion, Experian and Equifax, to give you a free copy of your report once a year.

Local reaction to training bomb dropped in Va. Beach
She says she didn't hear the training bomb land, but did notice the jets were louder today and seemed to be flying a bit lower. The Navy says earlier in the day, the F/A-18C Hornet was conducting a training mission at the Navy's Dare County, North Carolina Bombing Range. A former A-6 intruder pilot familiar with these types of training missions says, "It's almost unheard of. There's various things that can happen at intervals ranging from error in the cockpit to mechanical malfunction on the airplane." The former pilot described how the training bomb, which often releases a small plume of smoke when it lands, works. "It's harmless and it's only so you can see the location of where the bomb hits. It's for target practice basically." The Virginia Beach warehouse was obviously not the Navy's intended target. Now it's investigating what caused the training bomb to accidentally drop.
