Re: The Use of My
Social Security Number as an Identifier
Dear Sir/Madam:
I am writing to you
about ________________ [Company Name]'s use of my Social
Security number to identify me as a customer.
I am concerned that this practice is increasing the
risk that I may become a victim of identity theft.
Identity theft often
occurs when a criminal uses another person's Social
Security number to obtain credit. The fewer people that
have access to my Social Security number, the safer I am
from becoming a victim of this type of crime.
________________ [Company Name]'s practice of using
Social Security numbers to identify customers only makes
it easier for this type of crime to occur by allowing more
persons than necessary access to my Social Security
number.
Please use another number to identify me as
a customer. Also,
please do not use my Social Security number on any
correspondence, or any other materials that you may send
to me and do not disclose my Social Security number to any
third parties.
Also, I have noticed my Social Security number appears on
the face of the card ________________[Company Name] issued
to me. Please send
me a new one on which my Social Security number is not
visible.
I look forward to you promptly addressing my concern.
Should you need to contact me about this matter,
you may do so by writing to me at the above address or by
phone at
________________[phone number].
Sincerely,
Name:__________________________________ |
