These are notes from a Toastmaster’s meeting.

– John Smith came home from work one day and went out to check his mail. As he went through his email he found a hospital bill for $30,000. He called up the hospital to review it with them. They went through all of his personal information and it was all correct. He went to the hospital and lifted his shirt and showed them that he had no scaring.
– Medical Identity theft occurs to 27 million people or 1 in 13.
– This type of Identity theft usually comes as a result of a phishing scam. It’s not a matter of when it will happen to you, but rather when you will find out that has happened to you.
– 2 attacks imperil in for 417,000 at Augusta University Health System
– How many licks does it take to get to the center of security awareness?
