| So you wouldn't have a problem with giving me your bank account username and password? Or how about a username and password to a shopping site that stores your credit card info? Some users on myspace do use the same passwords and user names on other sites or even have personal info in their profiles. Using that info is most certainly identity theft. No matter how you try and spin that it's not.

First off anyone who uses the same passwords on different sites, or even worst yet post their personal info on unsecured myspace, or any profiles for that matter, are fools.
There is no excuse whatsoever, other than the poor excuse of ignorance and denial, to use random password generator programs such as RoboForm (The one I use) to generate random passwords on different websites that have ANY of your personal information.
You can not be too careful when securing private information on the internet. Ignorance and denial will make you a target.

00000 | Myspace is not a banking system, it has no direct tie to anything financial or personal. I can not get your social security number from it. Stealing a myspace password is not identity theft. |

It's the law; go look it up. Anyone who has majored in business has taken at least two law classes and would know this.
