Can someone access my bank account with my Social Security number?

They can use your SSN to open a bank account in your name. That means that anyone with your SSN can easily open a bank account in your name, especially if the identity thief already obtained a drivers license in your name.

Can someone hack your bank account with your full name?

For your name, you dont have to put your full name, especially the one your bank recognises, on your profile. Your first and last name, or simply a username or nickname is fine.
