Default ID Theft -- Courtesy of the FAA

I know for a fact that when you apply for a credit card, you have to
supply them with your social security number. If the name on the card
doesn't match the SS given, they'll reject it. This person HAD to get
your SS in some way, and theres no way they could have gotten your SS
from a FAA source.

I suggest you direct your anger in a more constructive direction.


One of the first things I found out when I started looking into what
to do was that not all credit-card sources require the SSAN. And I
*am* ****ed off at the thief and will do everything I can to help nab
him. As I've already stated, my OP was intended as a "heads-up" about
the danger of allowing the Feds to post one's personal data on the
Internet. Isn't that constructive?
