Americas CardRoom

[JinLu]

All,

I am not sure what the rules are here. I have tried to do my best to understand. Please forgive me. I am genuinely looking for information.

TL;DR - Is Americas card room secure and does it protect your Social Security Number?

I want to deposit fiat currency into Americas Card Room. Like many sites, they ask me for my last 4 digits of my Social Security Number.

That sad part:

If I know your last 4 digits, all I need to know is where you are born. Per the Gov:
The first three (3) digits of a person's social security number are determined by the ZIP Code of the mailing address shown on the application for a social security number"

Many sites default the security password to where I was born. Your mailing address where you are born is your zip code of the address of your parents.

I leave that as an exercise for those interested to determine what the last 2 digits are. As we all know the combinations - There are only 99 numbers left to determine your SSN number.

Too boot - The Gov uses a very simply algorithm to determine those digits. It is easy to reverse engineer.

So, my question: Is it OK or SAFE to provide my last 4 digits to Americans Card room?

Welcome to the forum JinLu,

Let me start by saying that I totally understand your concerns. Giving your personal information to an online gambling site can be very scary, and no matter how high security they claim to have a hack can always happen.

One should always consider the big picture. How a site has performed in the past? What is the fine print in their TOS? What others have said before? Is the game selection adequete? Is some other site better for your needs?

But at the end of the day only you can make the decision to sign up or not - how much risk you are willing to take?
