PRESS RELEASE

Feb. 18, 2009 -- New York, N.Y. — What will $250 and a tank of gas buy these days?

All the personal information you could ever want. At least that's what one hacker proved during a recent drive through San Francisco. With RFIDsniffing gear set up in the back of a sedan, the apparatus snagged information broadcast by radio frequency chips in two passports yards away from his vehicle. Remember the days when skimmers actually had to make contact to steal and clone data? They're over.

What will less than $250 buy you?
