... and this is the calm before the data sh!tstorm
When the NHS role out their database which contains, medical records that contain biometric data, address details, national insurance numbers, ex directory telephone numbers, mobile numbers, easy cross referencing to mother's maiden name, I think the UK will soon know what identity theft is all about.
The NHS database is going to be the El Dorado for identity thieves across the world.
This database will be available to doctors surgeries and all hospitals, so I think we can bet the net is going to be used.
Access will be to a million or so civil servants, nurses and doctors, I am sure nothing bad will happen, not.
