According to FINRA, Kyle James Luebeck was fined $5,000 and suspended for 10 business days for improperly removing non-public personal customer information from his firm without the firm's or customers' knowledge or consent. In anticipation of joining another firm, Luebeck emailed customers' non-public information from his firm email to an outside email account he controlled. He retained this information after termination when he was not entitled to possess it. The emails contained dates of birth, social security numbers, account numbers, insurance policy numbers, tax filings, and driver's license numbers. Improper removal of customer data creates identity theft risks and violates privacy protections. Customers should be notified if their information is improperly accessed.
