NE: ‘Unfortunate situation’ at Kitchen Place auction

Posted on July 18, 2011 by Dissent

We’ve known for a long time that when businesses fold, they may just dump records with sensitive information instead of disposing of them properly.  And in many states, such actions would not necessarily be illegal.   Here’s a timely reminder from Nebraska about a bankruptcy auction involving the Kitchen Place:

 

Two file cabinets that were to be sold were located in a back room and contained records of past customers. The information included everything from floor plans to methods of payment, such as credit card numbers and bank accounts.

In the basement of the Kitchen Place, boxes of payroll information from employees were on shelves that were sold. Included in the information was such personal information as Social Security numbers.

All the information was accessible to people who were looking over the items before the auction began.
