COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) -
About a month ago, attorney Tom Dougall logged on to healthcare.gov to
browse for cheaper insurance for him and his wife.

On Friday, the last thing he expected to hear on his voicemail was a
man from North Carolina who says he can access all of Tom's personal
information.

Dougall says he thought it was a scam until he realized his privacy
had been breached.

"I believe somehow the ACA, the Healthcare website has sent me your
information, is what it looks like," said Justin, a North Carolina man
who could access Tom's information on healthcare.gov. "I think there's
a problem with the wrong information getting to the wrong people."

At first, Dougall didn't know what to think.

"We received a phone call from a gentleman named Justin in North
Carolina who informed me that he had gone on the healthcare.gov
website and when he logged in under his log in and password, he
received a document of all of my and my wife's personal information,"
Dougall said.

Dougall said he thought it was a ploy.

"Initially I was concerned because I didn't know if this was some guy
who was scamming me or if in fact this was a guy who really had my
personal information," he said.

Justin even provided proof, documents containing Tom's personal
information and screen shots of the website.

"And you can see that he's actually signed in as Justin and it tells
him he has notices about his marketplace eligibility and to download
those and when he downloads it, the next screen shot shows him my
personal information," he said.

And the hits keep rolling...

Given the problems, I think anyone who signs into healthcare.gov and
provides *any* personal information, SS number, etc. is a fool.

Yup...

Naive.

No. You are sounding more and more like an imbecile lately.
