... to identity theft. CASE #3 LexisNexis identified several incidents of potentially fraudulent access to information about individuals at its recently acquired Seisint unit. These incidents arose from third parties misappropriating IDs and passwords from legitimate customers. As a result, information on approximately 32,000 individuals might have been fraudulently accessed, including names, addresses, Social Security, and driver's license numbers (but not credit history, medical records, or financial information) .
