http://cbs4.com/consumer/local_story_031172038.html MIAMI GARDENS - Customers of a North-Dade luxury auto dealership have been warned that their identities, bank accounts, even social security numbers may have been compromised. CBS4 News has learned that there's a criminal probe underway into what happened at the Warren Henry automotive group, after a woman walked in off the street and took off with a box of sensitive customer data. [...] While another woman was engaged in conversation with sales personnel in conversation, the suspect made her way to a back office and grabbed a box containing the sensitive financial data of dozens of customers who'd recently purchased fancy cars from the high-end dealer. The sources also say it's believed the document heist was well orchestrated as the woman knew where to go abd what to grab. They even had had a getaway car waiting for them, without a license tag on the back so they couldn't be tracked. As a result of the theft, Warren Henry has had to contact dozens of customers to let them know their bank accounts, credit, and other personal information may have been compromised.
