Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Your social security number overall describes who you are and your citizenship. If someone could get a hold of your SSN, they could do an number of things that are far worse then mere identity theft. If given the chance, they could even file for unemployment or Social Security benefits. This means that by using your identity, they are illegally gaining funds through government benefits. This crime is known as fraud.
