I used to work in an electronic applicances shop and the stuff I could have done had I had the desire to is frightening. During credit buy applications, I had ALL of a person's info, enough to completely credit card fruad them with almost zero chance of getting caught. On their application form was every single thing needed for ID, all their work info, personal info, credit card info, bank info, salary info, spouse details, everything, and after they signed it it was up to me to file this away. I could have had a photo copy of their signature as well as photo copies of their passport/driving licence and a recent bill or bank statement which had all of their bank details on there. There was nothing stopping me walking to a photo copier first and keeping a huge file with 100's of these docs, they never checked the cameras in the shop and I must have handled over 5000 of these in my time there.
Something to bear in mind next time you apply for interest free credit or something.
I would never do that to someone, but makes me wonder in that company how many people did go somewhere with it. Its an absolutely dire system.
