AFAIK no... BB's bank won't guarantee the Best Buy Card any more, I guess Best Buy made too many guarantees or what not, I got a similar notice a while ago via mail and was told to reapply for the card. as for Kris Herzog's post, There was a story on slashdot.org that while has some suspect details [see: http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/04/24/1818210&mode=thread], leads me to the conclusion that every situation is different, so be very careful if anyone here chooses to approach the managers at Best Buy. Fear and Panic may ensue... btw, this thread has been going all day, has anyone confirmed that this story is true yet? nick ----- Original Message ----- From: "RayW" <rayw () fuckmicrosoft com> To: <vuln-dev () securityfocus com> Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 3:42 PM Subject: RE: Wlan @ bestbuy is cleartext?
Hello All, I received a Call today from BestBuy and apparently they are re-issuing my credit card. Could this be related? Of course.

I would assume it's more than the few mentioned (Best Buy, Home Depot, Wal Mart, KMart, Tech Schools). ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Cunningham" <m.cunningham () xpedite com> To: <vuln-dev () securityfocus com> Sent: May 01, 2002 3:19 PM Subject: RE: Wlan @ bestbuy is cleartext?A couple people on this list mentioned Home Depot and Walmart as also potentially having this problem. Can anyone confirm/deny that this is the case? Thanks Mike
