fako and fico for most vary some peoples fakos r higher than actual ficos and others r lower like in my case, my fakos r lower than my actual ficos so there is no real formula to it

FAKO= Fake FICO

Basically, a credit score not from FICO.

If you fake your FICO score do you get  your FAKO score?  If you fake your FAKO score do you get your FICO score.

How many fake FICO scores could a FAKO sight fake if a FAKO site could fake FICO scores?

Girl to soon to be ex-boyfriend - Oh and I faked my FICO score with a FAKO score too!

It seems people in the higher score range have closer scores (assuming the 3 CRs jive) since the criteria to get there among the CRAs are closer.

I believe they provided you with a fake score. it happened to me before.

I'm 'new' here and have read this term often (FAKO).  I assumed it was an 'imposter' of some sort.  What I don't understand is WHY would anyone even bother with obtainin scores from anyone other than FICO?  What would be the point?
