Never tried echecks and the only thing I'm not comfortable giving out is my SSN. Is this a required field?

Why does it matter if they have your SSN? Any organization that wants to ruin your life can easily find the info on their own. We think nothing of giving minimum wage cashiers our Credit Cards but automated systems where human eyes will most likely never see your Social Security # is taboo. Wtf?
I don't mean to single out NLfool, it's just a general outrage I hear from many people about giving out that sort of info. |

[/ QUOTE ] i'd like to think you are joking but i'm sure you're not. protecting your information is never stupid. paying with your credit card at some store and giving out your SSN to a company that supports online gambling for americans are different for very obvious reasons. |

So you're telling me that if PokerStars or whomever wanted to surrender info to the US Government on who played on their site, how much they won or lost and how they funded or withdrew from the site; a social security # would matter? I'm basically trying to say that you're putting yourself on the line by simply playing on the sites to begin with. If they want to screw you they can do so whether or not they have your social security #.

[/ QUOTE ] this is not the point. identity theft is probably OP's concern. and it's a valid one. edit: and i'm not talking about pokerstars stealing your identity. they have nothing to do with their echecks. |
