Illegal Alien Stole 10 yr old girl identity - Guard The Borders Blogburst
How would you like to find out your child’s identity had been stolen? You of course probably wouldn’t know until the child reached adulthood.
Kern found out quite by accident when Hayley’s application for the North Carolina Children’s Health Insurance Program was initially rejected because her earned income was too high. Hayley is 10 years old. She doesn’t have any earned income.
Guess the Social Security Administration doesn’t look at earned income for 10 year olds or 5 year olds for that matter.
What she learned was that a man, an illegal immigrant in his 20s, had been working under Hayley’s Social Security number for the past six years.
snip….
Rosario does not speak English. Through an interpreter, Knight learned that when Rosario came to the U.S. from Mexico at age 22, he was told he needed “work papers” to get a job. The working papers acquaintances provided was a Social Security card with Rosario’s name and a fraudulent number. He believed the number was the “work papers” that allowed him to work in the U.S. Knight said Rosario was at a loss to understand what he had done wrong.
As much as I’d like to empathize with this Mexican man, I can’t. I find it difficult to believe this man has been in the US working for 6 years and is unaware of the political fight going on with illegal aliens in this country. The one consistency with this man though; he has been in this country for 6 years, he can’t speak any English and yet has a drivers license and vehicle. I’m surprised he hasn’t purchased a home yet!
The mother, Shelly Kern now has the terrible task of trying to clear her childs identity.
Clearing your child’s name can be just as frustrating and infuriating as clearing an adult’s name. Kern said maybe more so. First, she was referred to the regional Social Security Administration office where she was told there was nothing they could do. They sent her to the Employment Security Commission. Neither agency nor the DSS has enforcement powers, so Kern went to the Star Police Department.
snip…..
When Kern tried to order a credit report on her daughter, she hit obstacle after obstacle.
0nline, the credit reporting agencies want credit information that her daughter, at age 10, does not have and she cannot get a credit report for Rosario, no matter that the Social Security number is fraudulent. She has appealed to the N.C. Attorney General’s Office for assistance.
Apparently this has been happening for years:
The practice of stealing, selling and using Social Security numbers from juveniles began over 20 years ago in southern California and has spread throughout the country. Apparently, the SSNs are obtained through brokers, who are primarily Permanent Legal Residents. The “brokers” physically monitor court house records of newborns, and obtain their birth registry issued SSNs from open public records, or from other Permanent Legal Residents/Naturalized Citizens who are employees of city and county government that have access to tax records.
The reason this illegal practice has been relatively successful is that the IRS/SSA doesn’t note that one to five year old children shouldn’t be working, despite the SSA records that show the age of number holders. Also, ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) is not known for pursuing this line of investigation.
If you have children you should really read the rest of this story since there’s more information covered that you should know.

Good one, Toni. The amnesty bill the Senate passed decriminalizes the fradulent use of Social Security Numbers by illegal aliens, despite the fact that it was pointed out how the lives of American citizens (both born here and naturalized) are being destroyed by the practice.
“Destroyed” sounds strong, but it’s not. At least the mother found out about it while her daughter was still young, and only one illegal (so far) has hijacked her SSN. According to an MSNBC report I linked to here, the average is 30. The average.

Illegal Aliens And Identity Theft
There are a number of ways - to put it mildly - in which illegal immgration is not a “victimless crime.” Identity theft is one of the most blatant.
