http://www.columbusdispatch.com/live/content/local_news/stories/2007/09/10/moredata.html The names and Social Security numbers of more than 66,600 more individuals, including former state workers, were on a computer backup tape stolen from a state intern's car in June, officials said today. The revelation brings to more than 1.3 million the number of individuals, businesses and other entities whose sensitive information is on the tape. The new names evidently were missed in an extensive state review of a duplicate of the missing device. The state will pay for one year of identity-theft protection and prevention services for those individuals. Already more than 212,000 have enrolled at a cost to the state of nearly $2 million.
