...The phone companies have very crap security at preventing that (numbertransferring), and the banks are poor security at user identification confirmation (some are easily satisfied with being told just your name and birthdate over the phone). Many years ago I set up a bank account with virtually no checks on my identity - I don't have a drivers license, I didn't have any utility bills in my name as it wasn't my property, all I had was another bank account set up when I was a baby, a birth certificate, and a medicare card (which doesn't verify your identity in the first place). The things they accepted were the kinds of things any thief could have grabbed during a burglary. And I suppose that despite your lack of ID you feel you should be able to vote in elections? That is an activity that can ruin your life much more thoroughly than the postulated phone number swap. You can get ID cards that would make little things like check cashing a whole lot less bothersome and can prove citizenship (or it's lack) when it is time to vote or ID yourself to the bank, {O.O} |
