Subject: Credit Card Hacker

A group of hackers have stolen 130 million credit card numbers and sell them for ten bucks each. I3c0 million is 1/3 of the U.S. population. I'm chekin my credit card for purchases I didn't make. It ain't funny folks, it ain't funny at all.

Yeah---my company credit card got hacked (I'm pretty sure I know exactly who it was, too, but AMEX didn't ask) They got one charge through...about $268 at an autoparts store and AMEX refused a couple of $2000+ attempts at a Lowe's store and a few $100 motel rooms.

Both AMEX and my company were pretty decent about it. Got a new card in a few days, and my company wasn't out anything.

We are patrons of Hannaford Stores and we got the notice back in March and a new ATM card in the mail within 24 hrs of the notice.  When I heard this on the news yesterday, I thought "OH NO, NOT AGAIN"!!!  I called the bank and they assured me that it was just the same case.
