Name, phone number, current location and date of birth that are easy to find are more important than SSN and actual financial information? How so?

- vineyardmike 4y agoFinancial info are easy to change. Financial info that is stolen and used won’t hold the victim liable for the damages (in us). SSN is basically universally leaked and also deterministically generated. Again, no harm to victim for any fraudulent uses. Address isn’t likely to change. Especially not due to a leak. Phone number changing is a PITA even if easier. Date of birth can’t change ever really.
- grammarnazzzi 4y ago> Address isn’t likely to change Addresses are already public records because property ownership and tax records are public.
