The government is probably now scrambling to buy them all up to "protect our information".

I wonder how many asses and tits are on copy machine hard drives.

I'm gonna guess very many. But the real question is how many pics of an ass with a hand on each side.

My GF just had her SSN jacked. What's fucked up is a checking account got opened by another name at the same bank company with her SSN. You'd think the bank would get suspicious if they see the same SSN pop up with 2 different names.

Was some Mexican name in California.

We were talking about this today and were wondering if something like that could have happend.

If you're in the identity theft business it seems this would be a pot of gold.

"The type of information we see on these machines with the social security numbers, birth certificates, bank records, income tax forms," John Juntunen said, "that information would be very valuable."


The day we visited the New Jersey warehouse, two shipping containers packed with used copiers were headed overseas - loaded with secrets on their way to unknown buyers in Argentina and Singapore.
Fucking lovely.

Oh, and if they ever get hold of the machine in my office, it's a complete windfall to them. We copy checks and documents with SSN's every single day.
