One of the boys had an ice cream * cake birthday special at a popular national ice cream parlor chain, which * asks for your social security number to get the special. * * They were working with the government to spot unregistered children. * * The children had gone back in a week later and used their dog's name * to get the special again. * * Since it was not the government collecting the social security numbers, * participants weren't told they were registering
