Personal data — including names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, addresses, beginning and end dates of employment, and emergency contact information — was stolen. “More than 800,000 employees and some retirees are impacted … all that receive a Postal Service paycheck,” said USPS spokesperson David Partenheimer. That includes the Postmaster General.
