[QUOTE="bercrystal, post: 1229527, member: 88"]I often wonder if just having a social security number is of any use to a crook if they do not have any other information on the person. :confused::confused: If someone bought something from an estate sale it usually isn't too hard to figure out the person's name & then go from there. However, if you bought something at say a flea market, antique shop or somewhere else that had no connection to the original individual how hard would it be to connect the dots. For me it would be impossible because I am not smart enough to figure out how to do it. I am sometimes utterly amazed at what I have found over the years in boxes of stuff cleared from a house. Everything I have ever found has gone to the shredder, but I know there are those out there that either use the stuff or pitch it into the trash at most. :facepalm::facepalm: [USER=649]@bluumz[/USER] - BTW - That is a beautiful pendant & sorry for off topic post. It is just something I have wondered about for a long time. :happy::happy::happy:[/QUOTE]
