Ahhhh. Good stuff. I love these conversations. This is a semi-relevant post:
So anyway, a few weeks ago I'm trying to buy something online using my credit card. Turns out that I entered the wrong expiration date and the whole thing was denied. I contacted the credit card company to try and get it approved only to have to go through some "verification".
Here's what I had to do:
Mother's Maiden Name
Social Security Number
Home Phone Number
Address for when I lived in Indiana (10 years ago)
Address for around 8 places in Colorado
Approximate age of Stacey Ferguson (30-37,38-42,43-47).....
Whoa!
"Did you say Stacey Ferguson", I asked the account rep.
"You do know her don't you?" replied the rep.
"Oh yeah, I know HIM" I countered
"Well can you pick the age?"
"Should be 38-42. But how do YOU know about Stacey Ferguson?" I demanded.
"Well, the computer pulls up information from various sources that only you should know," responded the rep.
"Well, does the computer show that Stacey Ferguson was my sister's boyfriend in High School and I haven't seen or heard of him in 20 years. How in the world is my sister's boyfriend from 20 years ago attached to me?"
God only knows what kind of information my insurance company has. And God only knows what kind of info they're all going to be able to put together in the coming years....
Seriously - kinda freaked me out....
