What about if someone obtains your A# and uses it illegally?

I have heard that the A# should be kept private in the same way as the SSN.
What are the consequences if someone obtain your A# and uses it
illegally?
 
The A# is only valid with the accompanying documentation

The A# is only valid with the accompanying documentation.

The SSN or a credit card number are different and can probably be used without the accompanying docs.
 
Don\'t Understand this?

I can understand how SSN or Credit Card # can be used for illegal activity. But don\'t understand with A#. What kind of illegal activity can be done using A#. Could somebody provide me in details..I just got my 485 approved and I never bothered about my A#.

Suppose that soemone has a diver\'s license and a no-restriction SSN
card, he can pass the I-9 check by showing these two documents.
But still he need to put down the A# on the I-9 form. If he
doesn\'t have a legal status, he can put down an arbitrary number
there. Human resources don\'t check with the INS. But the faked
A# he put down may be the same as that of any real PRs.

I remember such things because inside the USA I always
tred to use my green card but always failed. The human
resources refused to look at my green card after I
put down the A# because by law it was enough for
them to document my Driver\'s license and SSN card.

I mentioned once my green card was rejected
as an ID form at a zoo when I renewed my memebership.
Last week, I picked up some parcel at the US Post
Office. I showed my green card to them but they
refused to accept it as a form of identification
because they had no idea what it was. "The
US Department of Justice" on the card does
not look impressive to these federal workers.
 
debo_nair stop bullshitting around

Debo_Nair,
I have noticed your postings on this site. You are one of those people who are interested in all the information when it was your turn for the green card. Now that that\'s through, who gave you the right to bash others around? You are extremely rude and should be taken off this board. I have noticed you bashing INS officers at port of entry in your post. You would licked the same guys feet if it was your sorry day. So, please mind your language and you add no value or asset to this site. I have cleared the green card process just as you did and try to help others in any small way I can. If you can\'t talk right then please hush.

Just can\'t stand a sick and sorry brother like you!
Shalom

Maybe one day, the use of SSN by private organization will be
banned by law and by then credit card issuers will seek to use
other numbers like A#. Citizens will be issued C# too so that
banks can use that too for citizens.

If the idea of a national ID really become a reality,
what number do you think the government will use?
