The Risk
CBS News Investigation into Photocopiers Raises Questions in Buffalo
Two of the four copiers - randomly purchased by CBS News from a used copier warehouse in New Jersey - happened to be from the Buffalo Police Department.
The copiers were loaded with confidential documents, from police reports to lists of wanted sex offenders.
In addition to the two Buffalo copiers, we bought two others: one from a Bronx construction company, which still had a list of employees names and social security numbers on its hard drive, and the other used by a New York-based insurance company, Affinity Health Plan, which had patients' medical records and prescription information on the hard drive.
