Mr. William P Foley, CEO Fidelity National Financial 601 Riverside Ave Jacksonville, FL 32205 Mr. Foley; As founder of Fidelity National Financial, I felt it would be lackadaisical of me to forgo sending this letter to make sure you know how your company is being operated. As you know, Fidelity National Financial has sought to distance the negative stigma of its association to Certegy Check Services and the former employee that misappropriated consumer information by selling 8.5 million customer records to direct marketing organizations. This senior level database administrator was responsible for enforcing data access rights at Certegy and it is the publics understanding he used his access to remove the data from the Certegy facility using physical processes to avoid detection. While this Certegy issue involved some 8.5 million-customer records, Washington Mutual involves some 5.7 million-customer records; Bank of America involves around 4.6 million customer records; EMC involves around 3.3 million customer records and Keybank involves around 1.9 million customer records. I say this because Fidelity has signed agreements with these clients that forbids the sharing of passwords to access their systems. These clients requested this strict verbiage because they are aware of the negative ramifications these Certegy like issues raise and they want to prevent the likelihood of any similar incidents. It has been my argument for sometime that everyone should have individual access and no associates should be sharing access codes or passwords at anytime. After I received an email from James Dorrian addressing this very issue, I reached out to him in accordance to the terms in my FIS Employee Handbook. He said he was unaware of the sharing of passwords, it was definitely against company policy and he would rectify this situation immediately. Within two days I was verbally assaulted and my employment was threatened. Within two months, my employment was terminated and no one has done anything to investigate any of these incidents.
In closing, I have a family to feed, I have a home that is on the verge of foreclosure and my automobile will be repossessed at the end of the month. As a result of the aforementioned, I am in the process of having the complaint for a Whistleblower Lawsuit drafted because this company has blacklisted me and I am unable to work in my field. In as much as it saddens me, it would appear as though I will need to have you deposed as a result of this company’s lack of due diligence and I would be all too appreciative if you would be so kind as make yourself available to participate in the litigation of this issue. May God Continue to Bless You and Fidelity,
