You got tricked into resetting someones password. Your oracle database is now compromised. Everyone knows this.

nope.

verified user's info..
unless this guy killed the original user, and assumed his identity.. and knows his personal info...
we verify based on info put into the system from HR.. even the user's manager doesn't have access to the info we verify.

i worry that we have idiots like that going into oracle.

it makes me wonder if the requests we get for system restores isn't caused because some noneck like that has access and just deleted some vital info by accident
