To add to the problem, social security was never meant to be an national ID number. It was just really useful for a whole lot of things. However, numbers are handed out sequentially, not randomly. So take your SIN and add or subtract one from it and that is another person's SIN. Knowing just a few simple things about a person can reveal most if not their entire SIN.
