In this brief segment, Daniel Rosen highlights the widespread issue of errors on consumer credit reports. Citing a Consumer Reports study, he notes that nearly half of people who reviewed their reports discovered a mistake, and more than one in four found a serious error such as an account that wasn’t theirs or an incorrectly reported late payment.
