Are these people *insane*? And, if so, how long do they have to be off their meds before the credit cards are cancelled? Even if they don't show your credit card number, the pattern of purchases is a fraudster or ID thief's dream come true. When you are calling to report a lost card, or a problem with it, one of the standard questions that you get is about recent purchases.
Well.. Social sites are designed for invasion into privacy. Show me just one that don't own every data you post there. Show me just one that is not selling data to marketing departments. Funny you mentioned credit cards. What about your current location? http://www.ipoki.com/ -- Martin Tomasek _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
