chosen.content: Credit companies may base a person's credit score on numerous factors, including payment history, credit utilization, credit mix, and length of credit history. Unfortunately, some of these factors are easily abused and can lead to an increased credit risk. Excessive application for credit, over-the-limit charges, late payments, and unpaid debt can all have a severe negative effect on an individual's credit score. By being vigilant, consumers can safeguard their credit score and protect themselves against any abusive practices.

rejected.content: Credit companies take into account various factors to assess an individual's creditworthiness, such as credit card history, debt-to-credit ratio, number of open accounts, payment history, and inquiries into the individual's credit history. 
  
  Some activities can potentially be abused to negatively manipulate an individual's credit score, such as opening multiple credit accounts in a short period of time, allowing accounts to go into delinquency, or allowing for too many inquiries from third parties into a person's credit history.
