Apparently some used/loaned/leased copiers may have a harddrive in them, busily making an electronic copy of everything you have ever faxed/scanned/copied.....and when you are done with the machine, that info is easily retrieved by the BGs.

Tom posted that on his FB earlier this week. Scary report. I had no idea that the documents were scanned forever!

Supposedly our Canon copiers at work only store images for less than a day. Our security officer is already aware of the issue with the other copiers.
