Why should you be careful when giving out your social number???

Answer 1

To keep safe from identity theft and fraud. The social security number is what protects your money, back accounts, and credit cards. Once they are hacked there is no going back. Very dangerous. Only give you social security number to banks, credit card, companies, and other important businesses. Don't give it to like your friends or anyone like that, too risky.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Your social number is how the government can determine who you are (it’s your identity) and if someone has your social, then they have access to your identity. That means they can go committing crimes with your identity and have access to all your accounts and scamming with your identity and such!
So it’s important to keep it to yourself and the only time you would usually give it out is when your applying for a job.
