I couldn't figure why my credit score kept going down. I found out she was checking me several times a month to see if my income changed to see if she could go to court to get the child support raised.I reported it and received no response as they said that her company had a right to run credit checks. So much for fairness, I can't wait till the legislator jumps in and starts to regulate this credit industry.I wonder if they delete this message. My lawyer is standing by my side watching me, so maybe.....

That is still fraud, for she could only use that information by purporting that she was you at the time of the request. If you have fear of further persistent of such actions, placing a lock would not appear to matter, for if enough information is provided to show that the inquiree is you, then it wont matter.
