There’s a distinction between a credit lock and a credit freeze. The credit bureaus offer both, for the purposes of clarity and because they love you. And incidentally so they can upsell you solutions to the problems they created. In any case, go on each of the three credit bureau sites and set up a “credit freeze” and that is free. If they want money it’s not the correct option.

Good point, I've updated my comment to note freeze is the proper term.
