These "security questions" that Experian is asking aren't questions you previously given answers to, they are questions that are generated based on what they know about you based on your credit report and data from other databases. They might ask you about loans you have or had, people and phone numbers you are "associated" with, places you've lived, cars you've insured, etc.
