I just did this yearly free internet credit report thing and I see some funny stuff on it. Stuff like me opening a credit card account back in 1989 when I was only 6 freaking years old.

First of all, I find this to be complete bullshit and I want to hang the guy who invented 'credit'. Secondly...how do I go about fixing this?

i would contact the company you supposedly had the card with first and see if there was ever an account in your name, if not then get a letter stating that. Second i would contact the specific bureau/company who you pulled credit from (experian, transunion, or equifax; if its one of them) and dispute it. And use the letter as support for your disputing
