A friend's Sprint ID was stolen recently. Apparently this is not new. Reports are that Sprint's internal security is relatively easy to circumvent. Once a user's ID is captured, new phone lines are ordered and charges are made.
I'm not sure why anyone would want to order additional phone lines. I suspect this is similar to postage stamp theft. Stamps are easy to steal and easy to use. They are a simple form of cash substitute. Steal a bunch of phones, register a free account, and sell the phones with free phone service.
