I bought a board game at a local secondhand store last night. The box was taped shut. It seemed a bit thicker than it should have been, but I assumed that contents had just shifted.
Nope.
I just opened it. Inside the box, on top of the actual game contents, were 17 sealed envelopes from student loan lenders (and the Department of Education).
In an age in which people go to great lengths to protect their indentity, someone handed a gold mine to potential indentity thieves.
Oops!
