Dumpster Diver Finds Medical Records

Dumpster Diver Finds Medical Records:

It is information no one would want scattered on papers in a parking lot, much less thrown away in a dumpster for anyone to find. Medical records were found behind a 99 Cents store in southwest Houston putting people’s identities at risk.

Dozens of documents with sensitive personal information were dumped. A self-proclaimed dumpster diver who wants to remain anonymous found them.

The files are from Express EMS Services, an ambulance company. There are names, date of births, addresses and social security numbers.
