Paige Thompson was arrested Monday for allegedly hacking into Capital One’s databases and gaining access to approximately 140,000 Social Security numbers and 80,000 bank account numbers.

Capital One disclosed the massive breach in a press release Monday afternoon, noting that about 100 million people in the U.S. and 6 million people in Canada were affected in total. It’s one of the largest breaches of a major financial service.

A majority of the comprised information came from credit card application data submitted between 2005 and 2019 that included names, addresses, zip codes/postal codes, phone numbers, email addresses, dates of birth, and self-reported income. Credit score information, payment history, transaction data, contact information, and more were also obtained.

Her plan was for you to get your money back from her by seeing her personally.

That’s another freak that showed more than enough warning signs before he did his damage.

Waste of an education. He’ll get when he’s 37-39 but he won’t be able to work.

At least not in the country. He might have to go foreign to get a job.

This former Amazon employee who had also worked on 'cloud' computing..

Looks like it missed its big chance to work on the military contract with Amazon for cloud computing.

GEE, WHAT COULD'VE GONE WRONG THERE?

Did it sell any information to China, I mean why ELSE would it do it?
