I did not realized this had happened until i was trying to get a job with a big company and they paid a third party company to do background checks. Now i have worked many places and have gotten many tax returns since then. I have never lost my ssn card or gave it to anyone but i still got stolen and is still currently being used by this woman in California. I can't find her because her address is fake. Now how is she able to take loans out in my name, get a house, get a job, under an 14 year old girls name. Didn't anyone think it looked a little suspicious whenever they had a 14 year old girl applying for a loan? Trying to get a job? Getting credit cards? The fact is no one bothered to even do a in depth background check for many years. I have a huge problem with this. Ssn's are not safe. No matter who you are or how your protect yourself.
