I would be suspicious of this activity. The Social Security Administration is not eager to "Change" social security numbers. They don't do it just on a whim or for any old reason. When I adopted my daughter, I wanted to have her SSN changed in the event that her birth parents still had her SSN. They refused to allow it stating that the laws had changed early in 2004 and that actual ID theft had to occur prior to allowing a SSN change. Extraordinary circumstances have to exist prior to their taking this action. SO... I would wonder if the original SSN belonged to the customer.
