Have you ever purchased a vehicle? Most of us have and we willingly fill out dealer documents that disclose our name, social security number, driver license number, address and more. This information should be very carefully protected by the dealership that collects it, however, there can be times when this information is lost in error.

In the New Hampshire / Massachusetts area, we have found a report of a data breach that involves a tape being stolen from a Ford/Toyota dealer. Bill Dube Ford/Toyota was the area’s latest victim of data theft. The data stolen does include social security number and driver license information so consumers need to be aware and take action to protect themselves since this combination of information can prove to be very damaging to innocent victims. The amount of information stolen numbers in the thousands (10,000 is now being reported) so you can see that several people need to take action. Try taking this identity theft quiz and see how you do.
