Not true Dude -- you can change your SSN unless: -You filed for bankruptcy or -There is no evidence that someone is using your SSN And by my best guess - it's no more and no less painful than burning your fingerprints off. :)

If you dont give away your SSN, you cant go to school, you cant have a house, credit card, drivers license, or even a job. You can change your name, have your face resculpted, burn your fingerprints off, all legally, but you cannot change your SSN. -JP _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
