I see, so they do some kind of verification. Thanks for your reply!

I guess asking about credit report info is inadequate if people are managing to abuse this. One problem with that kind of thing is it's essentially security by obscurity, it's not deliberately created secret knowledge that can be trusted, it's stuff which happens to not be public and which only you should know, but there's no guarantee and you can't easily change it, right?

The more I think about it I might be getting the validation mixed up with healthcare.gov.

I definitely received the postcard though.
