What to do with someone's identity info

[Quintaar]

OK so I got a hard drive from goodwill.
Dipshits forgot to format it. It has a persons personal info on it.
These are the items the idiot scanned.

Drivers License
SS card
Birth certificate
Bank statements with account # on it
Credit score report (819)
And other crap

What can i do with this info? What goodies can i get?

Thanks.............

You assume that they know what formatting is.

They most likely don't.

you could sell it??

Open a paypal account, link it to their bank account, empty their bank account, buy shit. If you have their credit card number, then with their SSN you can western union yourself money online and pick it up as cash.

Formating---well.....they forgot to erase the hard drive nonetheless.

No CC#'s. They didn't photo copy any.

I'm pretty sure Transunion still lists full account numbers on their credit reports. That hard drive probably has just about every bit of information needed to either answer or guess the one or two security questions.

With the SSN scan and the birth certificate scan a potential thief would have literally everything one could possibly need to completely assume their identity. One could even request new physical copies of both, to get new IDs, new cards, new bank accounts...

With a bit of digging they may have even saved some passwords on the drive. Get into a few webmail accounts tied to banks and one could update account info or mail themselves a new physical card (to an authorized user) then go in and delete the email notification without them even noticing.

What you describe is pretty much worst-case scenario... not only was the drive not wiped but it did fall into unscrupulous hands.

Those poor bastards.

Don't be a dick? Erase all of it. And then call up the dude and be like "hey, you didn't erase your personal info. Just thought I'd let you know so you don't fuck yourself over in the future. You're lucky I'm a nice guy."

I looked into the paypal thing.

This person had a LOT of documents. Deeds, lots of bank statements. Military crap.
Even had a doc pertaning to some shares he has with a company. 2k each.
Sears recipt. A check made out to him from someone for 3K.

Keep the idea's/sugestions comming you fellow deviant's.
