Update on Northwest Florida State College breach

Posted on October 16, 2012 by Dissent

I updated the original post for a while, but thought it worth mentioning that the number of fraud reports from NWFSC employees continues to grow. It’s now up to 86, up 26 from a week ago. I hope all employees have flagged or frozen their accounts.

    According to Northwest Florida Daily News in a November 5th article, “As of Monday, about 130 employees had reported fraudulent activity either through their bank accounts or by new credit cards opened in their names.”

    I’m one of the students who just received a letter telling me that all of my personal info including my SSN was breached. Can’t the college be held responsible for something like this?
