28 August (Part 2) - Beware of Capita based scams
Bexley
Council has put a lot of eggs into the Capita basket and is not alone in that.
Capita suffered a data breach three months
ago and its shares have tumbled.
Bexley has nevertheless handed over more
responsibilities to their hapless partners without any obvious qualms.
Elsewhere councils have kept their residents informed of the risks that they
face as a result of Capita’s failure.
A search for the word Capita on Bexley’s website draws a blank but thanks to the
borough’s love affair with the Finance Director’s old employer residents are now at risk.
Waltham Forest Council is concerned that its residents will now be subjected to
scams. Bexley Council is apparently not.
A lot more information about this data breach and another two months earlier
is available here.
