A crack which installed code on servers at Network Solutions has leaked over 570,000 credit card details.

 

WOW... 570,000 credit cards... U just win the lottery...

 

Someone cocked that one up!

 

They somehow managed to get hold of the domain another hosting company stole off me several years ago

Maybe if they go bust ill get it back

 

oh dear god... the sad part is the credit card companys keep leaving people out to dry when this **** happens...

Well put HTR.

 

In fact, the credit card company likes me so much, that they rang me when they noticed strange activity on my card! It's nice because if they notice it and ring you, you don't have to go through any paperwork - it's all automatic.

I think 1ad7 is confusing credit cards with debit cards; but even then a bank will usually reverse fraudulent transactions if caught early around once a year as a good will gesture.

(BTW, whoa != woe )

 

HTR sorry but that sounds like shite. Any big business is not your friend, the adverts you see for banks are not to inspire you they are to dupe you out of all your maney. They do not love you or your family and they dont care about your well being. They are ran by stuffy little fat men with power issues and an insatiable greed for money.

 

Also why are companies allowed to keep your details anyway?? I would rather input my details every time I perform a transaction.

 

thats a very stereotypical view you have their.
Im not saying all big business are good people but trying to make them all out to be horrible fat little men is very silly.
for fact my bank manager is a tall slim rather attractive female lmao

 

Greetings!

This!

Just check your bank accounts to see if there is any unauthorised movement.

 

This is a fact sub routine. Plus, a company is there to make money and they will make more by having happy customers. They are only evil entities bent on the destruction of society if your one of the 'everything should be free' brigade.

Brilliantly put. Now could someone explain that to our prime minister Mr Brown please?

 

>.> obviously thats why the banks nearly didnt collapse ?? The artistic embellishment didn`t refer to them all being fat rather them all being fannies sorry to see it was wasted on you.

And i`m sorry but if the banks didnt aggressively sell too many people credit cards then the problem wouldn`t persist. The people receiving the cards are not capable of controlling themselves so really the banks shouldn`t throw our money away and should perform more thorough checks...unless of course they`re profiteering.



Anyway my point to the topic was why do these companies like xbox live, amazon etc feel obliged to keep my full details including my payment information? I would prefer if they didnt then I would only have myself to blame for any mis-givings. People shouldn`t be obliged to check their accounts to make sure someone else has created a problem from fraud!!
