CelebNSports247.com has just got word that the Vertical’s Shams Charania is reporting that the Milwaukee Bucks just go scammed big time!

How did this happen?

According to Charania [via DeadSpin], someone in the organization recently fell for a phishing scam, and sent players’ private financial data to a scammer.

In an email sent to Milwaukee players on Wednesday night, the franchise termed the issue as a “serious security incident” and took responsibility for an employee distributing 2015 IRS W-2 documents in an email scam in which team president Peter Feigin was impersonated, sources said.

Now whoever was posing as Feigin—let’s hope he was at least using an email address more convincing than PeterFeigin69@aol.com—reportedly has the addresses, social security numbers, and compensation figures for all the players on the Bucks’ roster. According to Charania, the Bucks have notified the IRS and the FBI of the scam.

We understand that people getting scammed, but a NBA team? We  feel sorry for the person who wasn’t paying attention to detail, because we bet he’s filling out his unemployment paperwork right about now.

Wow, unbelievable?
