LexisNexis ID Breach Worse Than Thought
FOXNews.com - U.S. & World - LexisNexis ID Breach Worse Than Thought
LexisNexis is now reporting that it may have lost the personal data of 310,00 people including names, addresses, social security info, and drivers license numbers. Out of the generosity of their hearts they are offering free credit reporting for a year, so I guess the criminals only have to wait a year before they start profiting on their misdeads. Unless the poor victims of this theft can manage to change their identification information at every possible location that it exists.
Though, it seems as if the criminals are not waiting that long after all. Reuters is reporting that 59 cases of data theft have already shown up.
