DeKalb County police have found sensitive customer information belonging to Ameriquest in a dumpster. DeKalb County investigators describe it as boxes and boxes of tax returns, credit histories and social security numbers. They have not gone through all of the boxes but estimate the information of 1,200 people to be exposed.

Ameriquest is no longer doing business in the state of Georgia after being charged with using predatory practices. Apparently the last insult to its customers is failing to hire a shredding service and simply dumping records in the trash.
