Social Security Identity Theft
Our Social Security number is our personal national ID. It’s given to us at a very early age, and stays with us a lifetime. That is, as long as nothing bad happens to ours along the way.
If you read the page on Drivers License Identity Theft, you already know where I’m going here. If not, here’s a refresher.
When illegal immigration hit a point in this country that alarmed most of us (triggered by 9/11) and due to that the governing bodies of most States passed legislation that required 2 forms of “legal” identification in ordered to be hired for work, the demand for social security numbers (legitimate ones, since they would be checked in the database to make sure they were real–prior to this illegals just used to make up socials or readily use another family member’s number) increased dramatically almost overnight.
“Real”
Gregg Ponath is a California native, a graduate of nearby Ponderosa High School in Shingle Springs (Class of 1974), and attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison earning a Varsity Big 10 Letter in golf. “I’ve always been a “B”—a Bobcat, then a Bruin and then a Badger” says Gregg, with a smile. “It’s no wonder I have a passion for another “B”—Business. I love this Sacramento community, and it’s been my home most of my life. It’s my goal and desire to elevate every business that I work with, and in the process elevate the entire community—even the ones I don’t have the pleasure to work with directly. That's what GAP Consulting is all about.”
