CINCINNATI - Former activist Amanda Mayes had her black identity stolen on the internet after local blogger Nate Livingston published her Social Security number on Blogger. Livingston had his blog removed due to a violation of Blogger's terms of service, but not before Mayes's black identity could be stolen.
The identity thief, a Presbyterian store clerk named Brett Pritchard, said his only motive was to defy the stereotypes that Amanda Mayes had promoted.
"I nabbed Amanda Mayes's social, not only for the profitability aspect," said Pritchard, "But to prove that you don't have to be a Jew to steal her black identity."
"And how sweet it feels to steal her identity," added Pritchard, "All of a sudden I'm out of the red, and into the black, and I owe it all to Nate Livingston."
Livingston is currently seeking a blogging service that respects his First Amendment right to publish Mayes's social security number, credit card number, PayPal password, and medical record history.
