Lee Klein, 39, of Boynton Beach, Florida, faces charges in alleged mafia racketeering conspiracy. LexisNexis says Klein accessed some of the same sensitive consumer databases once used to track terrorists. Klein may have used his access to the same database “in order to perpetrate certain crimes,” company says. Klein’s alleged crimes are different from credit card fraudsters using its database in the past, but he’s accused of using it to get information on potential extortion targets. LexiNexi acquired Seisint in 2004 for $775 million; company says it sent out 13,329 notification letters.”]
