Default jumping the border

i just recently bought a engine and trans from canada and they just recieved my payment today. he calls me up so i can repeat my info and then he asks for my social securtiy #. He told me it was for customs so they know were the engine is going. So like a piece of shit i told him without thinking twice. Is this true that he needs my ss# and if its not what should i do to protect myself? Im only 15 so i dont think he will be able to use it yet but what happens in 3 years? thanks for the help and save the "you fucked up" comments. thanks

Sounds like BS my friend. How did you pay for the engine? And did you pay a company or a person? Call these guys: (202)354-1000 or 1-877-CBP-5511 Monday-Friday, between 8:30 and 5:00 Eastern Time. They'll answer your question. It's border patrol customer service.

Well call one of the numbers I gave you before. They are tied in with national security. So if the guy wanted your SS# to steal your identity, they will do something about it. I'd call ASAP just in case.

i did something similar. my mom called a company, and they put a freeze on my credit so if anything on it changes, it will be flagged and looked into. sucks about your money, hope it all works out for you
