A survey conducted in February 2008 on identity (ID) theft by eCreditFreeze, LLC (www.eCreditFreeze.com) showed that over 50% of the survey respondents were unaware of their ability to place a freeze on their credit report.

When informed of this credit freeze capability, 67% of survey respondents reported that they were somewhat or very likely to place a freeze on their credit report to prevent identity theft.
