Thanks dekrist - I called and they requested copies of my Social Security card and my drivers license. I'm not about to send either one.
I believe George Orwell may not have been to far off on this one. Think about it, this private company wants me to send my SSN and photo ID so they are sure I am who I say I am? Just ask me some questions about my credit or my last purchase, or better yet, ask me a question about my dispute with Sallie Mae. Why would they want a picture ID and my signature which they have no record of? Sounds risky to me........
