Win the lottery, lose your identity?
November 3rd, 2008 - Posted by Caitlin
Names, Social Security numbers, addresses and prize amounts for more than 89,000 lottery winners were compromised when a former employee of the Texas Lottery Commission copied the sensitive information onto disks after being fired from his job as a computer analyst last year. The Lottery Commission is currently in the process of notifying the impacted individuals and advising them to place fraud alerts on their credit files. The former employee is under investigation by the Travis County District Attorney's office.
