I have never found it to be a problem, what can they do with them that would worry you?

I would not worry at all about this.  Maybe we get a birthday bonus?  ;D  You might have to be a certain age to join??  Also many places require you to verify with a phone number to make sure you are a real person and that it is YOU that is joining this, not someone else.

Yes they are personal questions..and I know that especially these days we must be careful what and with whom we share our information!  But again, Fusion Cash has been around for some time now, so no worries :)

Most sites want birthdates to make sure you are old enough. They can't really do no harm with your birthday, other than find out information about you. Anyone can find out anything about anyone with a simple birthdate.

I like to think positive.  Maybe they are going to send us a birthday present or credit our account.   :)

the birthday deal is to make sure that you're 9 years old :). You can imagine that they would limit some age group or so. I wouldn't worry too much about the birthday as it doesn't go much. I also think that 's it's part of the demographic information that they need to profile us. This is all about marketing. I'm sure the information such as birthday can be easily found even if we disclose it. As for the phone number, I think they need to verify our identify for the account. This will eliminate most people who are using false information.

I agree with Warren, what could they possibly do with your birth date that would concern you??
