Reply to "Identity Thieves Can Hit the Jackpot with Digital Copiers"

I am convinced that the CBS story was a hoax or that CBS was had by their so called expert who was really peddeling a product. We have spent numerous hours trying to re-create the scenerio in the CBS story and have been totally unsuccessful. I don't believe anybody short of the manufacturer or the FBI is capable of retrieving any of the data in a meaningful way.

I am convinced that the few documents they showed in the news clip were actually document server documents stored intentionally or accidentally by the previous owner of the copier.

The story however is intended to give the impression that virtually anything copied, printed or scanned is on the hard drive waiting for a simpleton to easily retrieve. That is just false!
