I want to assure you that VyStar is taking this matter very seriously.

We engaged all the necessary internal resources to actively cooperate with authorities during the investigation, and we will continue to work with the authorities as they complete their efforts.

That’s because, now more than ever, your credit score can be used by many organizations to determine the pricing model for certain services you use and the purchases you make, from applying for a credit card to purchasing a home. Many employers even check the credit scores of job applicants to determine if the candidates are the right fit for the company.
