States probing massive data breach of Social Security numbers

The breach is the latest demonstration of the growing vulnerability of personal information in the digital age

Which is why you do not want to put all of your personal information online with an Obamacare website.

Good freaking gravy.

Only about two thirds of us. LOL

Hacking to steal personal information for financial gain should be a capital offense. Lynch the bastards. Better yet, they like electronics so much, bring “Old Sparky” out of retirement.

Not after subtracting obambi’s numbers

Date of birth is another piece of identity theft info.

In Florida, your DOB is part of the public record of the voting database.

And the RINO’s in control won’t stop it. My county registrar of voters stands behind closing that info off, but he says the politics of Tallahassee doesn’t want to remove it or change the law.

It bothered me to get a postcard in the US mail (always subject to theft) where the Republican party was wishing me a happy birthday with my DOB clearly visible on the mailing.
Wilt Simpson is the legislator that was highlighted on the mailing and his office won’t stop the mailings.

Willing to bet they will put it off on data thieves when its probably leaks or sources from within the insurance exchanges

[Nifster]

too bad they don’t say which states....

[Sacajaweau]

What else could go wrong with Obamacare.

Does everyone remember when they admitted that their sites were NOT secure.

Thanks artichokegrower!

All y’all, ping to this one!!!!

Only about two thirds of us.

Election time is approaching. ID theft is a lot easier than combing through death records for a ‘voter registration’ drive.

At 200 million probably 45 of the 57 states.

Would be willing to bet it was a government employee.

Turn the information over to your local liberal newspaper - they would love an excuse to go after a Republican... it looks like Wilt Simpson deserves it...

Every government agency has their own SWAT team - and some are building their own army - and we the citizens of this ‘in process hellhole’ have almost ZERO protection. If we’re NOT going to be defended in any way, defund the liberal jerks.

I bet the one third are young children and illegal aliens.
