Hullo all. A friend (no, not a 'friend') revealed something interesting yesterday. Basically, at a young age, his mum divorced and got re-married. Because of this my friend started using his step-dad's surname in place of his birth surname. So, all the way through school, college, getting a bank account, etc. he's used his step-dad's surname to get legal documentation in that step-surname, including a passport.
Now. He ALSO has a birth certificate in his original birth surname. So, essentially, he has a made up identity using his step-surname that, with all the body of accounts, flats, credit rating and employment history, has a legal life of about 28 years.
He also has his birth identity, but this consists of little more than a birth certificate but could, surely, be bolstered with bank accounts etc in that surname.
Effectively, does he have two legal identities?
Any ideas if this kind of situation could be exploited in some way to his benefit. Short and long-term zany schemes accepted. |
