As if it wasn’t compromising enough to give up her measurements, Lindsay says Victoria’s Secret also wanted her Social Security Number.

She writes:

I was happily paying for my new comfortable bra when the Victoria’s Secret employee (in [redacted], NYC) at the register asked me if I wanted to receive discount coupons. Sure, I said. She then asked me for my social security number.

Appalled, I said no way. Couldn’t I just give her an email address to send the online coupons? No. But I got a free enormous pink umbrella! Everyone received those.

I think it’s insane that Victoria’s Secret is asking people for their SSN. How knows who will have access your information? And for a pair of free panties? I don’t think so.

Who knows how the employee planned on using this information. Has Victoria’s Secret made this indecent proposal to you?
