I think it would make sense to try and tie an identity to a person's social security number, since it's a pretty secure form of indentification. There's probably still ways around, I'm sure, but unless the twink in question's a talented paper artist, I'll doubt they'd be able to establish a new identity just to hassle your mud.

Using credit cards doesn't appeal to me as much, just because I know I've been getting a new offer every month, and I know for a fact that deceased people will still continue getting offers at their old address, regardless how many times you break the news to them. So unless shredding becomes law, I wouldn't use plastic.

What makes me a bit uneasy would be a ****tily-guarded server with my important numbers sitting in it; then people might be able to find a way into my identity through a third-rate MMORPG or mud that didn't bother taking precautions.
