Never give out that information, especially if they called you. You should insist that due to identity fraud prevention measures, you have subscribed to SomeID. Of course you may encounter a clerk unwilling to try or unable to access the internet. At that point your options may require you to release some private information, but you should make it clear that you insist in protecting your identity with SomeID.net. Despite having to occasionally compromise with organizations that are unable to comply with your request, you can have peace of mind knowing that lenders that check your credit will see the statement and verify who you are before initiating a transaction.
