Am I cynical or do these always seem like weird ploys to get your personal information?

That's exactly what they are! PEOPLE, STOP SHARING THE ANSWERS TO YOUR SECURITY QUESTIONS!!!

Who's security question is their maternal grandmother's first name? Surely anyone that knows you personally has pretty open access to that information.

No security question ever asked my grandmother's name. Grandfather yes, but not grandmother.
