Sensitive documents were found in  a trash dumpster behind a strip shopping 
center in Morrow. 

The shopping  center is located at the intersection of Mt. Zion Road and 
Jonesboro Road. The  file folders had copies of people’s drivers license, social 
security cards, and  their addresses. 

The material could potentially become an identity theft  nightmare.

The documents were apparently dumped by someone with The  Invision HR 
Staffing Group. The company recently changed its name and has moved  from Morrow to 
College Park.

Nick Campbell works for a retailer in the  strip shopping center and said he 
found the documents Saturday when he went to  the dumpster to throw out some 
trash. He called the Morrow Police Department.  

He says the officer saw the files and said there was nothing he could do  
about it.
Campbell says he then took it upon himself to remove the sensitive  material 
from the dumpster so that no one else would take advantage of the  private 
information.
