Question : Is it safe to buy plan and cellphones online through stores like Letstalk, Wirefly?
Hi everyone!! Lately I went to www.letstalk.com and tried to get a new AT&T plan with a phone. The deal was great, to be honest. However, I'm not sure if it's really secured to do so, because I have to give them my personal info like SS, Driver's License Number...If I already give them and cancel the transaction, would it still be safe and confidential? Thanks.

Answer #2 Yes, the two indirects you mention are safe.Wirefly and LetsTalk need your Social Security andother personal info in order to give the carrierinfo for the credit check - activating a cellphone account requires that you pass the carriers'credit requirements. So this is the SAME info youwould need to give the pimply face kid at thekiosk in the mall or any carrier retail location.That's not to say you should give your SS# to justanyone, but those two dealers are well-extablishedpartners with the carriers.Go to the sites'Privacy Policy/Security Policy pages for moreinfo. - answered by Joan of Fremont
