On June 16, authorities in Michigan arrested 29-year-old Justin Sean Johnson in connection with a 43-count indictment on charges of conspiracy, wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. The stolen data also included federal form W-2 data that contained income tax and withholding information, records that prosecutors say Johnson sold on dark web marketplaces to identity thieves engaged in tax refund fraud and other financial crimes.
The agency said it exposed 2.3m people's details in a “major privacy incident” involving a contractor that set up temporary housing.
The contractor with whom it shared the data has a vulnerable, unpatched network.
