Be careful if you get a e-mail from the FDIC requesting personal
information. If you answer - identity theft is a real possibility.

That applies to requests (not limited to e-mails) from any entity to wich
you didn't directly provide your personal information. You didn't give your
SSN to FDIC (or NASA) in the first place - so they don't need to ask you.

One (and only) noteable exception is the census.
