Bank information illegally shared information?

That;s a hard story to figure out, since you didn't really specify much.\n\nMy suggestion is that you have a consultation with an Attorney and let him tell you what you can do..........

No one should find this out about u without your consent. Your bank is not authorised to give your info either. U give some one your SS# they can find where u work, but cannot get your account # legally.

This is nothing new, upsetting as it is. Almost all companies, even ones who sell products to protect your safety and privacy (!), share databases with info on customers. Medical records, Motor vehicle records, criminal records, what you buy at the grocery store, credit card purchases (and you know those little "savings cards" at various large stores?)...they all are fed into databases which sell and trade info. The No Such Agency has been datamining for decades and the Interenet has become the favorite tool of ANYONE, from gov't agencies who want to destroy political careers, to vengeful spouses & others, who want to track down someone.\n\nBack in 1993, when I was new to the 'net, I was at my brothers, (already an addicted surfer). I was an avid "X-files" watcher and conspiracy nut. I asked what he would need to find out info on me. "Your license plate number", was his response! Now, it's even easier.\n\nThere is a great website: www.cluelessmailers.org/spamdemic/mapfullsize.html\nwhich has a huge map of which organizations, etc., send, receive and store vast amts. of info on US! There's also political data on research done by places like the conservative Carlysle Group.\n\nDatamining companies abound, offering data mining (collection) services and software for anyone who'll pay. Here's just one: \n\nwww.saic.com/datamining/datamgmt.html \n\nWelcome to the neo-"1984"!\n\nSee the site below, just one way to fight against spam and data collection.

I believe that there is a Yahoo Business contact that has information like that. Though I would guess that it is not free. Or there are places in the US that gather information of a consumer based on their internet usage and such. They have been in the news in recent months due to security breaches, Sorry I don't recall the name. Those would be the places that I would look for that kind of information.

Is all this information about you? If it is that's not to smart listing your ssn on a questions website where someone could steal your info. I would rethink having this question on here.

You have to remember. All info on any computer is at some risk, but banks go to great lengths to protect their/your data. I've been paying bills online since '99. No fraud yet. Just keep an eye on your accounts daily. If anything seems weird, call your bank-they will handle it.

For exactly the same reason that breaking into a bank vault is illegal, even if you don't actually take any money.\n\nEven if all you do is bypass the security and look around, you're costing the company a lot of money--they have to assume that any information available on that machine was compromised, which means new passwords, new security schemes, notifying thousands of customers that their data may have been stolen, and so on.  \n\nEven if you didn't find the production source code or the new schematics or the credit card information, they have to assume you downloaded it. And even if you only wanted to look at it, they have to assume that you're going to do bad things with it.

Basically it boils down to the fact that HE signed YOUR name. That constitutes fraud. Not whether it is a joint account or blah blah blah. That indeed is forgery. Now the fact that he just did a deposit shows that he was not being malicious. Is the money still there? No harm done. If it is gone, then hit him with the forgery charge.

Submit that authorization to their bankers and check their credits accordingly. You should be under oath for keeping information as confidential. But you should do it through their bankers only.

It is a scam to try and steal your banking information or credit card information.  It is a process called 'phishing'.  If they do not get your banking information, but you reply to the message or click on their link, you will have validated your e-mail address as a valid address and they will sell your address to spammers.

What you earn on your paycheck should be private.  It should not be shared with anyone else and it should be treated with the same privacy as your banking and credit information. It is private personal information that should be secured so noone else should have access to it but you.  In addition, payroll information also consists of personal identifying info like  Social and birthdate, etc... Information like that - if not secured, could be used for identity theft purposes if it lands in the wrong hands.\n\nRAF- Certified Payroll Professional

Ask them.\n\nThat is private information that is protected through privacy laws.  If a bank or someone gives that out, they would be in TROUBLE!!

No.  You are not entitled to ANY information regarding the financial activities of anyone else.  His privacy is protected... just like yours is.

Go to the branch of the bank in person, make sure you have proper i.d.  and can tell them when the account was opened , etc. With identity theft on the rise , the bank will safeguard the information for the account holder.
