CCNs and PINs were compromised...)

MAPLEWOOD, Minn. - Premier Banks says there is no evidence so far that
hackers stole and used consumer data when they diverted customers from
Premier's Web site to a phony site that asked for customers' personal
data.

President Mark Novitski said the Web site was immediately shut down
after a customer reported the problem.

Maplewood-based Premier Banks, which operates 22 branches, was among
more than 100 banks across the nation that were affected when hackers
gained access to a server operated by Goldleaf Technologies Inc. of
Brentwood, Tenn., on Thursday. Goldleaf is host to Web sites mostly
for smaller community banks.

Customers who tried to gain access to the sites were redirected to a
phony Web site that asked for a user name and password. If a customer
entered them, the site then asked for credit card and ATM
personal-identification numbers.
