The number listed below does not work for all credit reporting agancies.
However it does work for four of them (4), although they try to discourage
you from using it first. Still it would seem to help against spam and junk
mailers.

Subject: End distribution of your Social Security number, etc.
CALL: 1-888-567-8688

Just wanted to let everyone know who hasn't already heard, the four
major credit bureaus in the US will be allowed, starting July 1, to release
your credit info, mailing addresses, phone numbers, etc., to anyone who
requests it. If you would like to 'opt out' of this release of your info,
you can call 1-888-567-8688. It only takes a couple of minutes to do, and
you can take care of anyone else in the household while making only one
call, you'll just need to know their social security number.

Once the message starts you'll want option #2 and then option #3 - Be
sure to listen closely, the first option is only for a two
year period.  Make sure you wait until they prompt for the third option
which opts you out forever.  I received their paperwork in the mail
confirming my "opting out" within less than one week of making the call.
