Up to 860 people who used the citys ambulance service in early 2012 may have had their personal information stolen. That includes Social Security numbers and birthdates, although so far theres no evidence that anyone who used Valparaisos service was affected. An employee for the billing company that Valparaiso uses for the ambulance service Advanced Data Processing Inc. had used some peoples information to file false income tax returns, using a post office box to collect refund checks, City Attorney Ethan Lowe said.
