I'm sure a vast majority of it was phishing, but you may be surprised to know how many and how often people send info like that over unencrypted email.

Oh yes I agree, that's why phishing exists in the first place. Because people do it, so someone can take advantage of those people's (bad) habits.

Names, addresses, social security numbers, etc.
