A sales agent has told Allstate Canada Inc. that files of 60 to 70 
Toronto policyholders were stolen from his automobile.

The home and auto insurer, the slogan for which is "You're in good 
hands," said yesterday managers did not learn of the theft until 12 
days after it occurred.

As an extra precaution, Allstate said, staff contacted or left 
messages for 107 of the agent's clients yesterday, more than the 
number of files reported missing.

...  Agents often carry two or three files when visiting clients, she 
said, but must keep other files locked in an office cabinet. Allstate 
had just completed an education program about the importance of 
protecting customer information.
