>>>Very few companies have any way to differentiate between "person who has a SSN" vs "someone else who knows that SSN".
that seems like a them problem, not a me problem. If they accept that as an ID, and then are defrauded for money why can than them make that my problem?

They will have lots of help making it your problem, from collections agents and courts and eventually the police. > SSN should not be used for Identification I agree that it shouldn't, but it is.
