So, this morning I was in my apartment when the phone rings. My parents and I have been vaguely trying to connect with each other so I picked it up right away. This is the conversation that ensued:
Me: Hello?
Unknown male: Hello?
Me: Yes, hi?
UM: Are you there?
Me: Yes?
UM: What's your Social Security Number
Me: I'm sorry, I don't give that out over the phone. *hangs up*
o_0 I mean, what? Seriously! Is this some sort of new scam? Call people up and ask for their SSN and see how many of them automatically give it out? BIZARRE.

Current quote
What we can do, we must do: we must use what we are given, and we must use it the best we can, however much or little help we have for the task.

WOW. that is crazy.
did you know here in Canada we call this number the Social Insurance Number, ie. SIN number.
just thought i'd share! :)
Yes, very crazy!
I did not know that. Is there a particular reason that you're aware of?
OH. I got it! Lol! Sometimes I'm very slow in the uptake.
Maybe it's the new pickup line - I'll steal your identiy, and take you out to eat with your own money?
That's so bizarre.
