ID Theft Makes Your Day

Yah.

A friend of a friend suffered an ID theft.

One of the things he learned is that the Wisconsin Department of Motor Vehicles has had a few problems with its employees selling (SELLING!!!!) your Social Security number to bad guys.

You will recall that WI/DMV began requiring your SSAN a few years back. There was a great deal of unhappiness with that requirement--Sykes, if I recall correctly, was vocal about it.

No matter, by Jiminy--the Feds told the State to get those numbers, and our State bent over.

Now, you TOO, can bend over, after the State's employees knock down a few bucks by misappropriating your SSAN.

What a Country!!
