I went on the Equifax website and entered fake names and SSN #'s and they came up as "breached". I entered the last names of "Rainbow" "Birdbrain" "Trumpsux" - all with SSN#'s like 123456, 000000, 987654...Really cockamamie made up info and the auto message I got was that my info had been breached. IMO, something is really wrong with all of this. I don't trust Equifax.
