New ssn *please read*
Heyy...
Alright so long story short I have been a victim of Identity Theft. Someone opened a bank account under my name with my SSN. I've already taken necessary steps to freeze everything, and it's within a month of the account opening so I caught it early.
I was told that I should be able to get a new SSN due to this occurring. It's not 100% official, I've never dealt with identity theft before so I don't know how exactly getting a new SSN will happen.
Lets say I do, my immiediate thought was I'm blacklisted on Paypal with SSN. What if I create a new account under my name (even though blacklisted) with a new SSN?!? Would that not allow me to appear as a new person? I could send them whatever docs they need to verify me but if I have a new SSN, unless they are able to see I somehow got a new pne (which I doubt) could I not get a personal Paypal account again?
I have 2 stealths with EIN's, no worries there but it'd be nice to have another back up that's at least "real". I say "real" because although my EINS are of course official businesses, it's always possible I will have to in the future provide them a full SSN. Who knows with Paypal.....
Love to hear feedback, sorry for lengthy post UPDATE:
I should be getting a new # just need to get docs from the bank that the account was opened. I checked on the USS.gov and it appears my current SSN isn't destroyed which I figured but the # is still changed? So Paypal shouldn't know this if for instance a bank wouldn't, right?
