UNM students, employees could be victims of ID theft

Posted on August 18, 2016 by Dissent

Sandra Ramirez reports:

Ronald Murray is accused of taking personal information from a University of New Mexico database and using it to go on a nearly $90,000 spending spree.

Las Cruces Police Department spokesperson Dan Trujillo said Murray bought a $27,000 Harley Davidson motorcycle, a $52,000 Jeep and nearly $4,000 in electronics from a Las Cruces Best Buy store.

Trujillo said Murray had a flash drive containing personal information for 1,300 former UNM students and employees. Police still don’t know how he obtained it.
