text: question on ssn? a person in my 1st period class was looking at my work permit and copied down my ssn and now im not sure what i should do.......i ahve tried to get it from her but she has made like 10 copies now...i dont think she knows the middle 2 numbers but like is there a way to get a new ssn? because i dont know wat she can do with my ssn...i really dont trust her...what should i do? im really lost here.... tell your parents about this.  i feel it should be reported to the principal immediately.  this is a violation of your privacy and is potentially identify theft.  the fact that she copied your ssn may indicate that she has plans to use it.fyi: ssns can be used to obtain credit.
