I Just an email with an attached file that contained EVERY shopper with their contact info performing a shop for a MSC and Client in Texas. My info included. What a breach of security!

Who was the MSC?

My idea of an agreeable person is a person who agrees with me.

Yes, please name the MSC. Inquiring minds want to know.

I'm sure the scheduler who clicked "Carbon Copy" instead of "Blind Carbon Copy" is already well aware of what they did wrong.

Letting loose a complete list of all their shoppers is not something they wanted to do. This scheduler was having a very bad day. The owner of the MSC is likely livid.

Geez, that's not just a little breach. It's huge! I would be worried about the spam and the nutters out there that may put the information to their ill needs.

This is one of the reasons I'm very glad to have the vast majority of my MS accounts associated with a PO Box.

Costs like $25 for 6 months at the one I'm at, and nobody from the MSCs know where I actually live.

Somewhere in the Midwest, shopping / auditing full time since 2014. Will use PV-500 for food! smiling smiley

I'm happy I did not receive an email like that. Obviously I am not registered with that MSC.
