Most times, when someone asks me for my ssn, I ask them, "Do you know it is illegal to use a ssn for anything other than Social Security business?" It's an old law on the books so we, US Citizens were never known as numbers. Somehow it went ignored. Most times, you don't have to give your ssn but they don't have to give you the service you are looking for
