Would be curious who released the SSN too or if they just used address and name to verify.



I am fairly certain that a SSN is not required to report someone to a credit bureau if you are a company(debt collector) that is registered with the credit bureau. I'll be happy to admit I am wrong if someone can prove it, but I've seen it done in the past mostly with medical bills. Also, I've seen screw ups on credit reports b/c of family members with the same name (John Smith Jr's debt going to his dad, John Smith b/c they have the same address). If the collection agency had the SSN, there wouldn't be an issue.

SSN is not needed. But if its not provided then its going to be hard to pass validation criteria when disputed.

I was more curious if any Municipalities were releasing this info.
