From the Associated Press news wire/Yahoo Finance...

The business of background checks is booming. Employers spend at least
$2 billion a year to look into the pasts of their prospective
employees. They want to make sure they're not hiring a thief, or
worse.

But it is a system weakened by the conversion to digital files and
compromised by the welter of private companies that profit by amassing
public records and selling them to employers. These flaws have
devastating consequences.
