How do you feel about forms that ask for your social security # ?

    I'm on the hunt tonight for some good paying/simple campaigns with a few of my networks. I like one page form submits that pay high!

    My question to you is, how do you feel about forms that ask for your social security number? Are too many people afraid to give that info online? I'd like to research a bit before I go spending money on a domain for a specific offer and begin marketing it. When I could find something else that doesn't ask for such information.


    thanks :]

    .......

    Sarcasm?

    Hmmmm I might just stay away from offers that ask for a SS# because I'll most likely get zero to very few leads because people are so chicken shit. Oh well.

    I'm turned away because I'm not a USA person, so I don't have a social security number.

    Well I'm not worried about non-USA traffic. I need USA traffic for my leads to go through anyway. So only Americans

    Wouldn't enter my SS#...never really so unless I know the company very well and know I'm safe. Most of the time I can just use a tax ID# for my business. That's a good way to get around the SS# issue also.

    that SS# number is as private as you can get to a person without knowing them. I stopped requesting it years ago after my reports show that it was responsible for over 53% of my declines. People would give credit cards, drivers license or even sent me copies of these documents but were unwilling to part with their SS.

    I strongly do not recommend it.
