I think once that file was online even for a few minutes, the card numbers mentioned in it are not safe anymore. It will be leaked again.
If it's not some kind of provocation (files with false data) then this is a pretty big crisis. I'm going to have to monitor my credit card logs closely in the next few weeks...
- gokhan 15y agoWhich one is more safe? Letting it go so media picks it up, forcing people to renew their cards with less damage to end users or covering it and let the underground community sit on it, using random cards time to time from an endless stash?
- Ohadr 15y agoAs a possible victim I prefer spreading the list as quickly as possible. All major commerce sites and payment companies will take note of this and stop accepting these card accounts. Obviously it will still be a huge hassle to reissue all those cards but it will minimize the financial damage.
- cabalamat 15y agoIf it is false data, won't the credit card companies say so loudly?
- krembo 15y agoSince i found my CC details over there I assume this is not false data. Can we call it a cyber terror attack?
- HotKFreshSwag 15y agoI would call it black hat hacking, hacktivism or sabotage. I wouldn't call it a terror attack unless you feel terror when you realize you have to call your credit card provider. Lets save the word terror for things that terrify people like say bodily harm or death.
- rdtsc 15y ago> Can we call it a cyber terror attack? We can. How will that help? It won't put the cat back in the bag.
