What is the name of your state? FL
I did a search for what I am about to ask but I didn't have much luck.
I'm really not sure where to post this so I apologize in advance if I put it in the wrong place.
To give a little background, I went to work with someone and the person I went to work with is the one who signed me up with the company and the procedure was at that time for whoever enrolls you, to take down all your personal info so you can get paid, such as your bank account info and social security number not to mention your address and phone number.
Well, recently this person had a falling out with some people I know. This person gave out mine and another coworker's information to a stranger on the internet. We know this because for one, the person who recieved it admitted it and posted the personal info on a website and threatened to use it, especially the bank account info. Also, they couldn't have known our personal info unless our coworker gave it to them.
The company has been notified about this activity but I do not know at this time what they will do about it. All bank accounts have been closed as well.
My questions are, other then this, is there anything else that we can do to protect ourselves?
Did this person do anything illegal by giving out our personal info without our consent or threatening to use it?
That's all I can think of right now.
Thank you for your time.
