Good question. If valid SSNs were used, without their knowledge (since they did more than a handful), then you're looking at identity theft..

In summary, people were using the loopholes to obtain an offer to apply for a credit card with an elevated sign-up bonus, then using that offer to apply under their own name (often repeatedly).
I'm not going to go into additional detail here on what was being done - there are other sites that spell it out - but nobody was applying for credit cards in their pet's names.
