I hope you aren't put in too much of a hardship because of it. Not that it is a huge difference, but was the card you were using a credit card or a debit card?

I found a forum at anon news dot org where people were discussing a file called users.tar.gz. basically a 9Gb zip file with everyone's info. The email addresses were plaintext listed next to encrypted password info. Not sure what else was in it, as this was just from a copy paste from one of the anonymous users. The discussion was about how to list them properly to feed them into a brute force decrypting program. Others were talking about how they could download the file from that "bay" torrent site. Anyway, I'm really sorry to hear this has affected you, and I would just caution everyone out there that this sort of disbursement of information could possibly last a while as that info is out there and people can choose to use it and decrypt it whenever they like. Could be tomorrow or a year from now. I'll be calling my bank tonight to get my card canceled and another issued. ///Greg Balint //Art Director / Motion Graphics Designer /321.514.4839 delRAZOR.com/ On Nov 8, 2013 9:01 PM, "Stephen van Vuuren" wrote= : > Okay, I just got my letter a few days ago and was going to get one of > credit monitoring services this weekend, but too late, my card was alread= y > obviously out in the wild.
