1) Experian has sent me one of those letters asking for a copy of my driverâ??s license and a recent utility bill. It just goes against my nature to send sensitive photocopies like that out to people already known to be untrustworthy. Wouldnâ??t a notarized signature legally establish a letterâ??s authenticity? Has anyone tried giving them that instead of the photocopies? 2) Iâ??ve gotten green cards back that have been hit with a rubber stamp of the receiving companyâ??s name instead of a signature in the box. I asked at the post office and got a rather generic response that â??one is as good as the otherâ? and that the stamp had the companyâ??s name on it so what was I worried about. They said I would have to restrict delivery to a named individual if I wanted to guarantee a personal signature. Is a rubber stamp really just as good as a signature? 3) Iâ??ve read a couple of places here and elsewhere, advice not to sign correspondence with a CA, just to print oneâ??s name. Does it make a difference? Many thanks for any thoughts or guidance anyone here might have for me with these three questions.
1) Send them what they want. They have all of your sensitive info anyway. 2) Yes. 3) Don't sign documents sent to debt collectors. Not necessary and yes, potentially dangerous.
