On another note why not just add the w9 into the sign up form if it is legally required or does it have to be faxed or mailed?
I agree with it being scary to send info to some companies. There are a lot of companies on the board that hire shady guys who you can't trust.

My suggestion would be to get a tax ID for all your stuff. You can do it immediately online on the department of revenue website. Use that instead of your SS# for all your business.
