Re:this is also a problem with bank cards (Score 1)

Worse than that, one time I got the same credit card number as somebody else. I noticed the problem when I tried to activate the card and found that not only did it not accept my social security number to activate it, but it was also already activated it. The card was under the other guy's name as he activated it first. I wonder if they changed his. hmm..., maybe I should go do some Christmas shopping....
