The point is to have them flag the credit tracking accounts (experion, transunion, equifax) at minimum so that additional identification is required for all transactions until you remove the fraud warning from your account files. Trust me, you don't want someone opening fraudulent lines of credit in your name with mailing addresses you've never heard of. You won't even know it until collection agencies come after twelve months later.
Waiting until something else odd shows up is an invitation to financial disaster. Check out
