Carl in Tampa: Sounds like Social Security took care of your problem with no loss to you. Many people are desperate for money these days---unfortunately, it's not going to get better. I had a problem five or six years ago with someone getting my Visa Card number and charging to it. Never did figure how it happen. It's rare when someone is caught.
I too heard that the service was next to worthless. TV is a perfect place for theft of this nature----don't look for the Government to "change" our Medicare cards anytime soon!
