Hey Vets! Got your VA Letter yet?
Department of Veterans Affairs | 12 June 2005 | Gulfwar1vet

Posted on 06/12/2006 3:29:19 PM PDT by GulfWar1Vet

Several weeks ago, an employee of the VA took home electronic data and his home was burglarized. (wonderful) The data included names, social security #'s and dates of birth (Fantastic!)

Today I got a letter from the VA stating the problem and what they are doing about it. (That's good)

The letter warned us if we notice any "suspicious activity" to notify the Federal Trade Commission (Oh boy!)

Sigh. Only if the employee just followed the "established policies"!

Anyway, here's to my SS#, my full name floating around the country/world for anybody to use as they see fit. Geesh.

Here I am! Come and get me!

Just wondering of all the vets here on FR have got there little special letter from the VA.

Got mine Thursday. Big deal just like my Agent Orange letter. A lot of BS and no real action.

Got mine. At least they apologized. My alma mater did the exact same thing a couple months back and their letter just said "watch your accounts".
