Using someone else's social security number in that manner doesn't have to be a crime.

Federal Identity Theft Laws
Federal identity theft laws address the unauthorized use of personal information, such as Social Security numbers, to commit fraud or other crimes. The Identity Theft and Assumption Deterrence Act of 1998 makes it a federal crime to knowingly use another person’s identification without lawful authority to commit or assist in unlawful activities. This law empowers federal authorities to prosecute SSN misuse, emphasizing the seriousness of identity theft.

Penalties for violating these laws can include fines and imprisonment of up to 15 years, depending on the offense’s severity.

There's the statute.

Nothing happened to that fellow in Texas for using the SSN. It's my impression it's small potatoes.

Unless it's your number being stolen, and you get victimized in the ways we see upthread.
