Can you put a freeze on your social security number?
Can you please elaborate on the possibility of putting a freeze on one's Social Security number? I understand that there are measures in place to protect personal information, but is it actually feasible to freeze your Social Security number in the same way one might freeze their credit? Is there a process or a system in place that allows individuals to prevent unauthorized use of their SSN, or is this something that's not commonly done? If so, what steps would one need to take to initiate such a freeze, and what are the potential benefits and drawbacks of doing so?
