Most of us do our civic duty of appearing before a court of law. You might receive a telephone call from a jury coordinator. He or she calls to confirm your appearance in court. If you act surprised that you are to appear in court, the called asks for your social security card number and your birthdate. This is so they can call and cancel the court appearance. Bingo, the guys have all the information needed to steal your identify. This has been confirmed by ther FBI and local police officials.
Never give out personal information to anyone.
