bjarvisYou don't know me, but I've learned a great deal about you since the refurbished Palm Tungsten E2 you returned to Circuit City arrived at my home this afternoon. I won more than I thought with that particular eBay auction.
I have your home & cell numbers so I suppose I could give you a call to give you the news, but it's more fun to do it here.
Seriously, dude, if you're planning a career in law enforcement --according to your resume-- you should know a bit about identity theft & how to avoid it. Things like shredding old documents, not giving out key information and erasing data from electronic devices before giving them away. OK, I know you're a little young but with a 3.8 GPA, you should know better. Your girlfriend Kim seems very pretty so perhaps she distracted you; I have her telephone numbers too, so I suppose I could ask.
BTW, I hope you do well on your Math 120 quiz this afternoon. It's on sections 4.4 and 4.6, in case you've forgotten.
Luv,
Brian

Date: 2006-03-20 07:07 pm (UTC)Sure, but many people honestly don't know or understand what disk storage even means in the first place. The guy certainly should have erased the info, but he didn't necessarily know how this whole thing would work -- or he may not have the background or training to be sensitive to the issues here (it's not just "common sense", although it certainly seems so once you know how this works). The refurbisher, on the other hand, is the professional here, and that's where I think the primary professional and ethical obligations lie.
Still, maybe you can hire yourself out to various schools and vocational programs to give presentations on Identity Theft 101. Bring a copy of this journal entry!
