Michigan Dept. of Community Health Data Theft
The Michigan Department of Community Health has notified over 4,000 former and current Michigan residents that they are at risk of identity theft. The MDCH is offering a year’s worth of credit monitoring for free.
A flash drive - a portable storage device containing names, current addresses, telephone, Social Security numbers and birth dates of the people participating in the study - has been missing from a secured floor in an MDCH building since Aug. 4 and is presumed to have been stolen, MDCH spokesman T.J. Bucholz said.
