This is a huge breach....

I wonder what the blowback will be. Could be pretty bad.

Someone is in really big trouble.

I have to ask the same question MikeAI did as far as the blow back and how it will affect business in the coming months.

I'm going to reduce the amount on my cards!

well....
I am eliminating possibilities based on this charge to my card:

02/17/2003 0 Charge FCIAS. ARROCHA CALLE 5 $2,316.69

so far, i know its a bank in panama that is affiliated with CITI and Chase.

last i checked, i wasn't in panama on Monday at a bank taking a cash advance....(wierd number too)

of course, knowing me, I may have pulled a Dudley Moore and woke up in Mexico monday.....

nahhhhhh....
