Google has confirmed that personal data of U.S. employees hired prior to 2006 have been stolen in a recent burglary.

A letter from Google said personal data of Google employees hired prior to December 31, 2005, may have been stolen in the May 26 burglary of Colt Express Outsourcing Services. No credit card numbers were in the
stolen data; just names, addresses, SSNs–all the information needed for a thief to open a credit card account under another’s name.

Google已经证实其美国部门早于2006年入职的员工个人信息被盗。

来自于Google的一封信上说早于2005年12月31日入职的员工个人信息可能在发生于5月26日的对Colt Express Outsourcing Services的入室盗窃中被盗。这其中并没有信用卡数据，只有姓名，地址，社会保险号 － 当然这些信息足以让偷盗者用这些名字办新信用卡。
