Q) If my social security number is compromised do i need to contact social security administration ?

A) According to the Social Security Administration: If someone has misused your Social Security number or other personal information to create credit or other problems for you, Social Security cannot resolve these problems. But there are several things you should do. You should go to http://www.idtheft.gov and report the identity theft to the Federal Trade Commission. Or, you can call 1-877-IDTHEFT (1-877-438-4338); TTY 1-866-653-4261. That website is a onestop national resource to learn about the crime of identity theft. It provides detailed information to help you deter, detect and defend against identity theft. http://www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs/EN-05-10064.pdf
