why dont you read a little further in the thread before throwing your hissy fit. And FYI social security numbers and where they were obtained is a tool of law enforcement and used all the time. Many officers are even given cards with each block of numbers and the state of issue (describe it as you care to) so stfu.
Perhaps, but the simple fact that someone's SSN has a prefix in a state in which he never resided is not, ipso facto, a reason to suspect that it is fraudulant.
