EXTRA! ESSIE ALERT!


You might want to think twice about setting up an account on the Obamacare website (even if you could get that far).

Tom Dougall is a South Carolina attorney. When the website first went into action, Tom wanted to shop around, so he set up an account. He found the "affordable" health care a little too pricey, so he didn't sign up for a plan and thought no more about it . . .

. . .until in the last few days when he was contacted by Justin from North Carolina. Justin put in his own user ID and password and got Tom's information. He sent Tom the pdf file he pulled up using his own access codes, and sure enough, it is the personal account for Tom and his wife. Tom has tried unsuccessfully to report this breach to the Obamacare people. Luckily for him (so far), his information was accessed by an honest person. What if it's not the next time?

If I were you, I wouldn't touch that website with a 10-foot pole!
