What are the chances of someone else having the same last name and last 4 digits of your ssn as well, one in a 10^10000!!!!!!

I would try and contact the school, always be cautious of these things!

My mom already knew about it and cancelled her credit card anyways after she called unt and found out i was in there....i told her they didnt get it though so she was relieved about that then i told her they had my ssn but she said there wasnt a lot they could do with ti since i dont have any credit cards or anyhting like that anyone else know if they can do anyhting?

You'd be amazed at the extremes....they could call a cc company and ask them to send them one...if they had you ssn and name and address, all they had to do was ask for a change of address and there you go, fraud in the making!

You need to check your credit record every so often...just to make sure no one has tried to open OR opened any accounts using your SSN.

I was gonna go there so I thought Id check this out anyways. Turns out that my SS number was available. I dunno what to do. Any ideas?
