My employer, although they have known my ss number for 28 years, quit using them a few years ago, privacy act DOES apply to SS numbers, so we have employee ID numbers... so if I only have to give my employee ID number out to prove employment, why do they insist they have to have the SS number, which is just TOO dangerous to give out these days.


It's for a credit check, many companies require a credit check before they start service or accept any kind of payment. It's how they make sure you'll pay the bill. It's good to guard your SS#, but if you're too paranoid, you're going to find that no one will do business with you.
