When calling my Investment institution...

Don't you just love those random questions "based on publicly available information" that financial institutions use to make sure you're really you

I had those when I got my credit report! "Our records show you had a mortgage on one of these addresses" -- news to me! But at least it was a trick question and not someone having taken out a mortgage using my SSN or something :)

How bizarre. Thank goodness he told you it was the trick question - that would have pinged my paranoid meter.

that is utterly odd.

"next question: are you high? that is, are you tripping at this very moment?"

"oh! wait, don't tell me, i know this one..."

Actually, that was (at the time TheWinterfox filled it out) one of the questions on the Vermont Bar Application. "Are you currently taking any drugs?"

Imagine putting THAT question to a bunch of lawyers...

*Dragggg*

answer = "Not at that moment"
