I SIM swapped myself twice on Sprint without authorization at an Apple store. Sales reps can generate a one time code for Sprint Support that allows them to bypass some of the IVRs and prove the call is coming from an Apple Store. Sprint support won't ask for a PIN or SSN. Just the line's number. Bam! How many people can do this? See those mom and pop "authorized resellers" at the mall? Yeah.

When someone stole my identity and opened up 8 lines they did it all at “authorized reseller” phone booths. I believe it was at a Costco. AT&T still let them order 4 new lines on a new account even though I already had an account with 2 lines.
