When IS it okay to give out my Social Security Number?  When you do, is it safe?  Do they keep it private?  How can I know that they do keep it private?
#1 IN A SERIES TO HELP YOU PROTECT YOUR IDENTITY:
Do you give your Social Security Number when you apply for a loan or a mortgage, apply to rent an apartment or home, go to the doctor's office, dentist's office, pharmacy, when you apply for a credit card, apply for a job, want to cash a check, or open a bank account?
