 Posted: Thu Nov 01, 2007 1:19 pm Post subject: My card details were filched when I shopped at Amazon |
 |
|
Last week I went online to buy a book.
The day after someone is going on a spending spree with my money. 
Fortunately the bank sorted it out, and I got on to Amazon so that they can put their own house in order.
Just a little heads up so that you can keep an eye on your account if you buy from them.
Totally unrelated, Amazon have something of an Anime sale on. Most of them have been on sale at ADV for a couple of quid, but there may be a few bargains their.
Remember. Keep 'em peeled.

Was the little padlock up when you sent your details through?

Th padlock was up yes. But Amazon is one of those sites that keeps customer details on a separate server.
My details wouldn't have been going between me and Amazon, rather the secure server and Amazon. The screw up is at their end.
I figured that would be safer than worrying about trojan keyloggers on my own machine. Turns out not.
