Abstract

The article reports that the names, Social Security numbers and mortgage information of many people have been leaked by an employee of ABN Amro Mortgage Group, a unit of Citigroup Inc., onto a peer-to-peer file-sharing network. It says that Dow Jones Newswires reviewed the spreadsheets that contain the information by using Lime Wire software. Lime Wire LLC has released a statement saying that the company is upgrading its software to combat and eliminate unintentional file sharing.
