Letters from the VA arrived today
Hubby and I have just been notified our information was among the millions of others stolen out of the idiot's home.

Ain't it great how they protect us. :sarcasm:

1. Hell, I'm hoping somebody steals my identity. I'm bankrupt and
trying to use my credit info would be a very frustrating exercise . . .

3. I was not reassured by the letter
which was mailed to us by the IRS because the VA doesn't have "current addresses for all affected individuals."

I thoroughly enjoyed paragraph three:

"Out of an abundance of caution, however, VA is taking all possible steps to protect and inform our Veterans." Hmmmm. Would that action prevented the thefts in the first place?

But, ole Jim Nicholson does apologize for any inconvenience.
