"On July 7, 2016, we learned that a targeted "phishing" email message had been sent to inVentiv Health in June.  Phishing emails are crafted to appear as if they have been sent from a legitimate organization or known individual.  The email was designed to appear as though it had been sent by an inVentiv executive, from the inVentiv executive's email account, requesting the uploading of our U.S. employees' 2015 W-2 Forms to a file sharing site.  Believing the email request to be legitimate, the W-2 data was uploaded.  It is unknown how much of the data uploaded may have been accessed by unauthorized individuals."The information compromised included W-2 data included your name, address, Social Security number and salary information.More Information: http://oag.ca.gov/ecrime/databreach/reports/sb24-62962
