security number? -MIKE |

Sherry You can only look them up online if the person who "owns" the SSN in question is dead. There is a Social Security Death Register at: www.publicdata.com |

That should *not* be easily available to anyone. Also, if your horse trailer isn't tagged here, you are required to post your SSN on the rear of it. I always transposed the last two digits. Sherry |

Alice Yes, it is scary, and the Social Security Administration STILL has a rule that SS is not to be used as indentification. What a laugh! The University where I work requires us to write our SS numbers on every check they cash, and these numbers are readily available to others (starting with the people who handle the checks). Ironically, faculty are not permitted to use any part of SS numbers for grade posting (not even 3 or 4 digits of the number, as we once did), but every university I have ever been associated with uses the number as the "student's ID" and prints them for all faculty, administrators, etc. This is only the tip of the iceberg, of course -- the part that I am most familiar with, but you will also find that stores require SS numbers if you want to open an account and various commercial entities use them for identification. I recently attended a speech given by the director of the local Soc. Sec. office, and he described using SS as identification as one of his "pet peeves." MaryL |
