No. I reached out to my mortgage company about a home equity loan and they did a soft pull on my credit, and for some reason every mortgage company on the planet can see this and somehow has my contact info and immediately started calling me about the inquiry
My wife is on the La Mortgage Bankers Association Board. She’s going to DC in April to try to end this shite.
The way it works is that the 3 credit bureaus sell the information for pennies to other lenders. It’s call Trigger Leads. Lawmakers have refused to put an end to it.

Go to www.optoutprescreen.com and electronically opt out for 5 years. Will stop after a day or two

I did this once when I was looking to buy a new car. I filled out a form on one of the local dealers’s websites with my contact number, and email.
I got about 20 to 30 calls in the next 2 to 3 days and about 30 emails. I was so pissed I ignored everything and ended up not getting a car for a while.
