Abandoned train tickets may reveal personal information such as a person's ID card no., the Guangzhou Daily reported. 据《广州日报》报道,随手丢弃的废旧火车票极有可能泄露购票者的身份证号码等个人信息。 
The real-name train ticket is printed with a two-bar-code which contains personal information. However this information can be translated and read by software which can be downloaded for free from the Internet. 实名制火车票上印有包含个人信息的二维码,而从网络上下载的一些免费的“二维码识别”软件可轻易“翻译出”二维码中的信息。
Most two-bar-codes in China have only one algorithm which can be easily copied and cracked. 目前,国内大部分使用的二维码只有一种算法,并且已经被复制和破解。

As a result, the only safe and effective method to prevent personal information from being revealed is to tear up the ticket before discarding it.

因此,目前防止信息泄露的最好方法是在使用完车票后撕毁再丢弃。
