No-Fail Identity Theft – Live and In Person
ancientribe writes "A researcher performing social-engineering exploits on behalf of several US banks and other firms in the past year has 'stolen' thousands of identities with a 100 percent success rate. He and his team have posed as investigators for the FDIC (among other things), and numerous times have literally been able to walk out the door with pilfered identities. The reason: organizations are typically so focused on online ID theft that they've forgotten how easy it is for a criminal to socially engineer his way into a bank branch or office and physically hack it."
What part of "insured up to $100,000 by FDIC" have you misinterpreted at your local bank? Just because the AC made the claim doesn't mean its true or informative. Post a reference and then I'll question the banks sign.
That's a great suggestion, but unfortunately, Diebold makes the ATM's for my bank. I don't particularly feel like trusting them either.
This statement doesn't really make sense or have any relevance... I'm sorry but it's not "Interesting" it's flamebait. I'll refrain from flaming though.
