Of course yes. A Perpetrator can claim your identity at all places where SSN is not a verification criterion.
@Ken, I am cent percent agreed with you. Usually SSN is nit a verification criteria everywhere. So I guess any third party can claim your identity.

I agree.. especially when you posted your true credentials online. The internet is the best place for thieves to steal identities.
Really possible. There are transactions which may not need SSN and definitely you’ll lose something/ Thieves are everywhere, just be careful in doing transactions online.
I must admint I am concerned because so much of your personal information is available on the Internet and I have already had one of my credit cards hacked. I avoid using my SS# online.
Well for me, i don’t agree with your opinion about that identity theft issue. First and foremost the reason is valid, your social security was stolen and its not your fault if that thing happen. I’ll elaborate more things later about that.
It’s possible, more thieves are now getting professional in hacking big accounts. What more for ordinary people like us? Just don’t display personal information online and keep your privacy intact with yourself.

Anything is possible nowadays. People should be very extra careful especially on making online transactions. Without SSN, it is still possible cause thieves find ways to make it possible.
Hackers and thieves are the dangerous people in the online industry. It can strike in a wink of an eye. Better to follow the guidelines on how to be safe in the online world.
Online people should realize the danger brought of doing online transactions without being notice d. It is really hard to trust people online.
Everything has an advantages and disadvantages. People should be aware that even on online transactions, there will always be danger. Being careful will help you to void any unnecessary crime that may occur.
It is possible especially for those thieves who were expert in online strategies. If thieves want it, they will surely find ways on how to take something online.
Is it possible. Black hat hackers have their own way of getting information just be accessing your computer, the best prevention for it is never put personal information on your computer (especially if you’re a regular internet user)
seeing as how Social Security numbers have been stolen so often This method of verification has been depreciated.. banks are using so many other ways to verify identity

Yes, online purchases don’t require a SS number. Most do require the credit card number and the CVV code on the back of the card.
Great post!!Very nice
