Philippines knows more about you, than you do

Philippines have cheap labour. Companies can setup there, and save a ton of money over the cost of labor in the USA. In a healthcare environment, this means Philippine staff are logging into USA Computers, and looking at your private personal information that contains, your name, DOB, SSN, your home address, phone numbers of your work and home. They know your family physician, your insurance provider. Essentially everything that is important in your life.
And you have zero say over it.
If you go to a hospital in the USA, the Philippine personnel have access to it all. Will they sell your information to China? Well, they are underpaid. I would say there is a good chance.

The problem is, its every 3rd world country problems.

@iamelijah Yes, one of those issues that everyone ignores. It is like putting a frog into boiling water, it will hop out, but if you put the frog in cold water and warm it up slowly, the frog will not hop out. You get used to it after a while, and then everyone forgets about it. You think your personal information is secure? Not even close.

@UreBesFrend I don't have much money even if they successfully steal my personal information.

What's their purpose to obtain personal information?

@iamelijah Identity theft is huge these days. They could construct a drivers license with your info, then apply for a credit card, and sell your house while you are on holidays.

@UreBesFrend Identity theft? Maybe? I don't know how they gonna forged it other than changing my face or name. Is this gonna work even with different people in different country?
I must know this conman asap. Lol. Just kidding.
Those scammers ain't use the same MO, using the same personal information over and over. They gonna change to keep them from getting caught.

Anyway, apply for credit card and selling my house would be impossible. Idk how it works in other countries, but in mine you gonna need loooooong process to make the deal and of course it has to be face to face and this conman must see my house/address before selling it.
That way much more easier to catch that conman.
