Target is non-union?
Target has been pro-gay, anti-gun since the 2008 elections. Why would any right-minded individual shop there?
New classification: these cards are now SSS = safe, secure, and stolen
looks to me like like Target is about as trust worthy as the white hut.
So encrypted PIN data was stolen, which doesn’t do the hackers much good. They can’t use the forged cards at ATMs or use them as debit cards for purchases, but they can still use them as credit cards and sign for purchases in stores. Still sucks though.
They cancel my daughter’s credit card on Christmas Eve while she was shopping for her 5 kids.She is sorry she ever shopped at target.
[whew] Suddenly I feel better about Heathcare.gov, as it is nothing BUT indecipherable strings of code.
Does anyone know if this applies to all purchases at target ever or just recently ?
Strong encryption.
They probably added the first 4 digits of pi to each number.
Oh, sorry, wasn’t supposed to tell anyone...
A large percentage of the PINs will be 1234, 9876, 1111, etc.
Can anyone explain why retailers keep any credit/debit card info? Once I have paid for my items I see no reason for them to keep that information.
