On the address part, it was almost laughable. I gave her my current address and she said "I show something different". I said "You have my old Ohio address then, is it street or PO Box?" and she is like "What is the PO Box number?". I honestly wasn't sure which they had last as that would be the "current" address... but she gave it up way too fucking easily.
