Gmoney makes a point, but it is not complete. Your bank will only cover the money part, if you identity is stolen. There are actually 5 areas and since they have your social now, someone can work with your number, sell it to someone so they can work, get a driver's lic in your name, or even get your medical info. People are paranoid because there is no way to protect yourself. You can only monitor it and hope you have a company (which I represent, which explains why I know about this) that will fully restore it. On the flip side, maybe they took it and just threw it away and you have nothing to worry about!

When you go into his Paypal and print it out, there is an option to turn off the hardcopy. I had one lost, and then turned my hardcopy off, thats not something I want floating around going to just anybody.

Check mypay web site if not there check with S-1(admin). They should be able to at least point him in the right direction.

Have him go on his My Pay account. Print out as many as he needs.

He can go to his administrative office wherever he is stationed and explain the situation. They will do the paperwork
