You look into the keys of the database, not enough SSN’s! There are duplicates!

It’s pretty obvious, there are nearly 350 million Americans and only 9 digits in a social security number, there’s no way that our database could possibly account for all Americans. You write a quick script and find a ton of duplicates across the system. This feels like obvious fraud! One hour on the job and you’re about to save the US government billions of dollars as a 21-year-old. This is gonna look great on your resume.

You are surprised to see that there are so many duplicate social security numbers! Is this amateur hour? What do you do?

Report it as something suspicious to Elon

Don’t report it and move on to something else, they’re probably key-ing off of something other than just a SSN
