A site warns users if their SSN, credit card numbers have been stolen
On Stolen ID Search, users enter their Social Security and credit card numbers to see if their information has already been stolen. The site compares the numbers to known sources of stolen data.
Sounds like a bad idea to reveal your personal data to some Web site, right? The site's operator swears it's not only safe, but smart.
StolenIDSearch is run by Trusted ID, a Silicon Valley company that sells services to help people prevent identity theft.
