Too bad they have your SS#. It should be guarded like a credit card to avoid misuse. A lot of info is open to whoever has your personal ID. Call an attorney or legal aid and ask for their recommendations. Ask if you should or could get a new SS#.
Also, talk to whoever is doing that and ask them to stop invading your privacy. If they refuse, call the police and ask them if there is anything you can do about it. Don't give up til you've exhausted all avenues of safety for your personal information.

Well i think its a good idea for some types of jobs,like teachers and coaches to have there background checked with out approval,but i try not to give my ss# to anybody,I dont even give to places that ask me for on line.My brother did once and his whole bank account was cleaned out.So i guess i think sometimes its good to know if someone has a police record before they get the job.

Well, as far as looking up police records or things like that, that's public information and there's nothing you can do about that. If they took your SS#, you need to contact the authorities to see what to do next.

If you are 18 or older, I would recommend you get a new SSN (identity theft is a valid reason), new passwords, etc. and protect your new information. You might want to consider contacting an attorney, if you don't want to press charges, you can get advice on how to protect yourself in the future. Check findlaw.com for attorneys who work in the area of identity theft and/or domestic disputes. Good luck!

Turn them in. That is against the law, and if they really loved you like true family members, they wouldnt be trying to invade your privacy.

background information is not personal, if they have your SSN they can get it. If they apply for credit or something then its wrong

You can file a criminal report. This is identity theft---even if it is a family member.

Not much you can do. If they have the information already. make sure you use passwords on all your documents and files.
and make sure they dont know the passwords.
