Issues with the US Social Security Number System
Issues with the US Social Security Number System
The obvious issues that lead to SSN identity fraud are the overuse and misuse of this information. While it is not a legal obligation to provide your SSN to companies other than government agencies, and insurance and credit companies, it is still the standard form of personal identification, and it is often a necessary prerequisite in order to do business with some companies.
However, when it is required that a customer use his or her SSN often, the security level of that identifier drops significantly. Companies often compiling customer lists which contain SSNs due to the amount of information they convey about a person. Websites such as SSN Background Check and SSN Lookup allow people to easily turn this number into a vast degree of personally identifiable information.
Therefore, fraud on this type is on the rise, as one can expect. One common technique for obtaining this information is to steal someone’s physical mail, which can result in the fraudster obtaining the person’s full name, address, and other related pieces of information. Mail containing personal information which is dumped in the garbage without being destroyed properly is also susceptible to being stolen. Both of these are on low end means of identity fraud … yet they are still prevalent and contribute to the problem.
Some states have begun to address this issue of SSN related identity fraud. The country’s overdependence on SSNs as a personal identifier and the irresponsible misuse of it by companies has been address to varying degrees in different states and with varying levels of success. Regulatory laws instituted in the past several years have created fines for companies that allow consumers’ personal identities slip into criminal hands. However, these measures alone are not enough to resolve a problem which is so widespread. Most of the laws are aimed at punishing companies or criminals after identity fraud has already been committed.
The major problem with SSNs which is not often discussed in relation to SSN related fraud is the permanence of the SSN. The number simply never ‘resets’. If you lose your Social Security card you are not provided with a new number, just a new card containing the same number as you have always had. Therefore, if one’s card was stolen, it is straightforward enough to get a new one, but the original theft is never addressed.
Your Social Security Number cannot be easily changed without special assistance or circumstances. If someone is to use your number to acquire credit through your name, there is generally a long lag time before you realize the problem. Often, realization doesn’t occur until several months later when the credit company has phoned or sent a letter to you demanding repayments, or you yourself have tried to acquire credit only to discover that your credit rating has been severely damaged.
A better system would be that, when your SSN was stolen or lost, you were provided with a new number as well as a new card, then the old one would become disconnected to you and therefore any criminal misuse of your old number would not adversely affect you personally. This is a common practice for banking and credit companies with credit cards; it should be adopted by our government as well. A simple precaution such as this can do wonders to address the inherent issue of SSN identity fraud.

Muslim American Physicians Congratulate President-Elect Obama and Looks Forward to a More Compassionate Health Care System Under Obama-Biden Administration
Lombard, IL (PRWEB) November 13, 2008
The Islamic Medical Association of North America (IMANA) congratulates President-elect Obama and looks forward to a more compassionate health care system under Obama-Biden administration.
The IMANA shares President-elect Obama’s passion for an inclusive health care system that is based on the philosophy that basic health care is a right of all Americans. As the economy deteriorates more and more Americans are at risk of losing access to health care. IMANA asks President-elect Obama to consider a robust partnership between government, health care industry and community based organizations to reform the health care system.
IMANA members who volunteer their time and services at no-cost or low-cost community based clinics are well aware of the importance of providing health care to millions of uninsured and under insured Americans. The informal community based health care system will benefit millions of Americans through an inclusive approach that is supported by all sectors of health care system and political persuasions.
“The fierce urgency of now” that President-elect Obama has reminded us all in his successful campaign is as relevant to health care reforms as any other aspect of American life. IMANA members are committed to providing the highest standard of health care to all irrespective of race, religion and social background of the patients.
The Islamic Medical Association of North America was founded in 1967 and is an association of Physicians and health care professionals that was formed to provide a forum to promote the ideals of Islamic medical ethics and values among Muslims and the community-at-large.
