How can IRS Commissioner Mark Everson be taken seriously when he says the IRS is unaware of identity theft tied to its stolen laptops [ Report: 490 IRS Laptops Lost or Stolen Over Nearly Three Years, Computerworld.com, April 5]? KnowledgeStorm and Nucleus Research published a study last year that showed that one-third of people write down their passwords sometimes on Post-it notes attached to the computer itself. Statistically, of the 490 lost laptops, we should expect that 163 were stolen from people who wrote down passwords. Based on sheer numbers, the IRS has every reason to believe that some of the stolen laptops contributed to identity theft.
