Perhaps smiles.
After all most countries do not associate so much critical information
to one number.
But many people do not put their private information by choice in places where
security of a site is a risk either so.
Sorry for the side track smiles.

You are say a senior or someone with a print disability in a

You must get help completing the forms, and the first question you

This is a very American rant. The inability of the rest of us to make
sense of it is because it doesn't apply to most of us.
Anyhow, anyone who wants my medical identity is welcome to it - so
long as I lose it when they acquire it. ;-)

your social security umber. Add that you may also be providing
this person private insurance numbers and the like. A person need
only write down our identification and have a field day.
Given how challenging it is to correct damage done on your credit
file, see the informative story on the 60 minutes website about
this, a person may never get cleared. the thief on the other hand
is getting credit cards and cell phones and medial things with your
information.
because the victim may not be able to investigate with ease, they
might not even know their identity has been compromised.
make sense?

What is medical identity theft?
I'd also be interested seeing the proof for the claim (I think he
means medical data breaches but IDK anyone has disclosed that
information).
