50 Point FICO gain drop? I just checked my FICO score (I am provided my chalk up

I just checked my FICO score (I am provided my chalk up every month from my credit card company) and it dropped 50 points in one month. I haven't opened any modern accounts, missed any payments or increased my debt so should I be concerned? Could this be indicative of idenity theft?

Answers:    There is a new model of FICO call FICO 08 that's coming out. If you have been on another folks credit card as an authorized user (but not as a joint account holder) your ranking may drop. Also the new model places more emphasis on have different kinds of credit such as installment and revolving accounts.
And yes, you should get a complete printout so you can check for identity nicking.
What something like your use ratio to your available credit? => That could affect big time your credit score. Do they also provide access to the report that supports the score?

I would be curious...

Have you, possibly, charged more on a credit card than you usually would? Even if you pay it contained by full each month, that will affect your score. The angelic news is if that's the case it will come back next month.

For those below me:

Pulling your own score, as mentioned, does NOT hurt your win. Neither does the monitoring current creditors do as they are considered soft inquiries. Only the ones where you apply for credit,

Paying off a credit card does NOT trash your win... even temporarily... as long as you don't CLOSE the card.
I can be. Also a mistake on your FICO report. Also, did you make a huge payment to payoff a debt. That usually happens after making a huge payment. If that's what you did it will take just about 3 month for that score to go better then the 50 it dropped.
I found out the complex way that your credit score can drop if you achieve too many inquiries on your credit... if you apply for loans, or even just apply for something where on earth you have to list your credit...

You know adjectives that junk mail you seize where they want to loan you money, give you a credit card, etc.? THEY check your credit and THAT can effect it to drop, although I don't know if it would drop 50 points...

Check out the web site below... it's EXCELLENT and it's probably a real angelic idea to find out why the drop! It could be something stupid like you don't enjoy enough credit...
Since you are given your FICO scores are you given your credit report also? If not then you hold no idea what's on your credit report, and what's brought your score down. You stipulation to check it out. All three of the bureaus should give you 1 free credit report a year. You need to look at that report to see whats going on, it's not ample to know your FICO score, it could fluctuate back and forth for masses minor reasons, but for a big drop like this, you can't guess. Check it out, very soon. Just pulling your credit score can lower your credit. Make sure adjectives your credit cards are under half used or that also brings your credit down.
People on here give bad information sometimes.

Pulling your evaluation will not lower your score. This puts a "soft pull" or "soft inquiry" on your report(s) which is not visible to anyone except for you on your report, and DOES NOT lower your mark.

Those pre-approved things that come in the mail.they DO NOT verbs your credit before sending you something in the correspondence.

You need to access your recent credit reports to find out what recently have happened. As some intelligent folks said in at hand...having too many credit inquiries, a roomy payoff on a debt reported, or your debt-to-credit ratio changing, can adversely affect your score.
