Laptop Theft
03/29/2005 06:33 AMThe personal details of almost 100,000 University of California
students have been stolen - and it's all because one laptop was taken
from one of the college's campuses. AP
reports
that the theft actually took place on March 11, but officials had
waited until now to release details in the hope that the thief might
be caught. That hasn't happened, raising fears of identity theft.
The laptop was stolen from UC Berkeley, wihch now plans to tell all
the people affected - some 98,369, including current alumni, past
applicants and graduate students - to check credit reports. However,
the university's Maria Felde said there was no indication any of the
data had been used illegally.
"The campus really regrets this happened and is taking steps to
strengthen security in the future," Felde told AP. The university
has set up a hotline on 1-800-372-5110, as well as a
website to answer questions about the theft. It
says: "At this time the campus has no evidence that personal data
were actually retrieved or misused. However, in accordance with state
law, UC Berkeley officials are making every reasonable effort to
notify by mail and e-mail all 98,369 individuals whose names and
Social Security numbers were on the computer and, as a precaution,
suggest they consider placing a fraud alert on their credit reporting
accounts."
