SCENARIO:
Money Mike Financial, as described above, was burglarized late last night. During the burglary, the perpetrators broke the front window and picked every lock, door and safety precaution the company previously put in place to protect their clients. The specific precautions taken are unknown at this time. Upon breaking in, the perpetrators stole roughly 50 client files with all of their personal and financial information. The perps have yet to utilize this information to their advantage but it is foreseeable that they will utilize the information to replicate each of their identities (identity theft).
