Trojan Horse Captured Data On 2,300 Oregon Taxpayers

Apparently someone working for the Oregon Department of Revenue didn’t realize that there could be wider consequences from polishing his knob other than hairy palms or blindness 😉 The former employee was released in January for surfing porn on his work desktop…moron. It was discovered that as a direct result of his surfing activities a trojan was installed and had collected information on roughly 2300 taxpayers from the state of Oregon. The employee has not been identified by the agency. Possibly because this investigation is still ongoing and may very well result in a criminal prosecution.
