Financial services conglomerate transmitting raw credit data via e-mail attachments.

I can't say who, but it has happened at one time. It has since been fixed, but it still scares me.

It should!! I have a friend who got his stolen and he's going through hell. The person who stole it has been opening accounts all over NYC, and he's lived in NC for the last 5 years. He used to live in NJ though, but where do you start? It's a real nightmare.

the 60k figure was reported on the 23rd when this first broke. I'm sure it's a higher number than that now. Assuming they haven't slacked.
