Verizon moves to stop ID theft

Verizon Wireless said on Wednesday that it had received a court injunction to stop a Florida investigative agency from fraudulently obtaining confidential information about its wireless subscribers, reports Reuters.

"The No. 2 U.S. mobile service said it filed a lawsuit accusing Global Information Group of making thousands of attempts to gather confidential information without authorization and using fraudulent schemes to do so, including impersonating Verizon employees and posing as customers."
