Americans' personal information is worth a penny.
A complete set of data about an American citizen costs only $ 14. Hackers who sell information about a person’s first and last name, date of birth, passport data and other confidential information obviously put the case on a grand scale if they managed to set such a low price.
About the new threat of Americans warns the company Symantec , whose experts are confident that the stolen information can be used for arbitrarily nefarious purposes - for example, to open a bank account in someone else's name and conduct through it financial fraud.
By the way, with bank cards, the situation is much more sad: a set that includes the card number, the name of the owner and the verification code will cost from $ 1 to $ 6.
