Cleveland Food Bank Loses Personal Data for Dozens of Clients

Posted on February 19, 2017 by Dissent

Kevin Niedermier reports:

Cleveland police are still looking for the stolen car that contained personal information on 44 Greater Cleveland Food Bank clients. The car was stolen last month after a food bank worker had collected the written information on assistance applications.

Food bank Communications Director Karen Pozna says so far none of the affected clients have reported any instances of identity theft. They were sent letters alerting them about the stolen information and offered free credit-protection service for a year. Pozna says the worker, who’s no longer with the food bank, should have downloaded the written information onto a computer within 48 hours.
