Are Editors Responsible for Who Sends Submissions? (Alternatively: What the F--- is Homeland Security Doing Calling us?)

So you may remember this post, in which I said one of Ann's submissions had been opened by Homeland Security.Well, this morning Ann got a purported call from Homeland Security trying to verify her name and social security number. They asked for Ann "Kennedy," not only her ex-husband's name but the name on the envelope of the submission HS had opened. The person had the wrong social and Ann didn't volunteer the right one.If this call was legitimate, and we think it might have been because no one calls us asking for Ann "Kennedy"--they either call asking for her under her maiden name or VanderMeer--it does raise an interesting question: Can magazine editors be held responsible for who sends submissions to them? The sensible answer is, of course, NO. But Ann's still going to follow up on this to try to verify the legitimacy of the call, etc.
