Did you know that fax machines could compromise your identity? Check out this story from a local news affiliate in Chicago.

The fax machine described in the story had received numerous purchase reports (with payment/account information) that could easily have been compromised. Imagine what one might find on a fax machine from a medical provider, a government office, a school, etc.
