Lost AMRO Security Tape Found
A U.S. mortgage firm owned by Dutch bank ABN Amro Bank NV said Tuesday it had retrieved a computer tape with data of 2 million customers that was lost by delivery firm DHL, sparking a data security scare.
ABN Amro Mortgage Group Inc., a unit of ABN Amro’s LaSalle Bank, said last Friday a tape with data including residential mortgage customer names, account information, payment histories and Social Security numbers had gone missing in transit.
The tape was lost after being picked up by DHL, a unit of Deutsche Post AG, Nov. 18 at ABN Amro Mortgage’s Chicago data processing center to be delivered to a Texas credit bureau facility.
