Charity Hacked and Card details stolen!
Hi,
I've just been watching the news and couldn't believe the apparent complacancy of the head of the charity.
Basically the charity site has been hacked, 2800 card details stolen and £100,000 stolen from those people, and this is what the head had to say:
"We had encryption that they shouldn't have been able to break"
hmmm, ok, heres the best bit:
"we had the padlock symbol in the browser"
Wow, geez you must be secure.
I gotta say in his defence he probably isn't techie minded, but seriously in a 3 line statement on national TV, surely you talk to someone who knows something so as not to look like a total ass.
Man some things just make me cringe, those poor people who thought they were doing good donating.....
