Heritage auctions lot 82144 could there be a lawsuit
 

Michael jordans credit app
Probably a crime, whoever took it from casino files
And heritage exposing Michael jordans social security #
WOW

If the SS# was exposed before it has now been blurred out in the lot image, though other personal info remains such as bank account #'s (though probably no longer active).

thats funny
how are they gonna erase it from the catalogue?

Is it not blurred in the catalog?
 

I didn't look at mine yet.

Did the bank also use the SSN for the account #.? The account # starts with 332, which is for people who were born in Illinois.

Just speculating.

Here is a link to that auction lot:

I thought Michael Jordan was born in New York?

Jordan was not born in Illinois.

Scott beat me to it.

They are just as likely to be sued over the large number of trimmed and re-colored Cracker Jacks residing in high-number SGC slabs. For some reason, these lots all remain active despite concrete proof of alteration.

Truly disgusting on the part of Heritage (who has been notified by multiple sources).

Disgusting on SGC's part too because they know they slabbed those for an insider and even if that were not the case, regardless of what kind of evidence is provided to them, they are not buying back anything. No different than PSA or Beckett.

That looks so cool!

Agreed. :mad:

What Ah would even consider auctioning off something like that? What ever happened to common sense? I learned something about SSNs I never knew before from this thread and it wasn't baseball related.

I hate to be that guy, but..................if Michael Jordan was going to have his identity stolen, this is the absolute least of his worries.

Anybody who really wants Michael's SS#, likely already has it.

;)

Kind of true, sometimes. From govt SSA website...

"The Area Number is assigned by the geographical region. Prior to 1972, cards were issued in local Social Security offices around the country and the Area Number represented the State in which the card was issued. This did not necessarily have to be the State where the applicant lived, since a person could apply for their card in any Social Security office. Since 1972, when SSA began assigning SSNs and issuing cards centrally from Baltimore, the area number assigned has been based on the ZIP code in the mailing address provided on the application for the original Social Security card. The applicant's mailing address does not have to be the same as their place of residence. Thus, the Area Number does not necessarily represent the State of residence of the applicant, either prior to 1972 or since."

And at some point in the last 10 years I believe that they started randomizing them so now there is no correlation at all.

Correct; numbers issued after July 2011 are completely random.
