Stolen BlackBerry contains data on Cabinet officials
In the UK, a BlackBerry sold by a homeless man to a student has been found to contain the personal information of cabinet ministers, top civil servants and police officials.
BBC News stated in a report that journalism student Darryl Curtis said that it held hundreds of phone numbers, with data which led him to believe that it belonged to an ex-Sheffield council chief.
Police believe it was stolen from a car and that they have determined whom it belongs to.
Curtis discovered that the BlackBerry contained the numbers for the children’s secretary, the foreign secretary, and an ex-deputy prime minister.
Curtis said he found on the BlackBerry the National Insurance number, home address and computer passwords of a former chief executive of Sheffield City Council.
A South Yorkshire police spokesman said that they are satisfied that they have traced the owner but that an investigation continues into the circumstances of the theft.
