China at work again... perhaps President Obama can discuss this in next day or two since he is over there.

Expect to see this happen as common place, now that everything is going digital. Just wait until we go cashless and you go to buy something and find you don't have an account anymore or a zero balance.

At least this is some reassurance (?) for USPS retail customers:


Quote:
Cash registers and point-of-sale terminals in post offices, as well as the website usps.com where customers pay for services with credit and debit cards, were not affected by the incident.

There is no evidence that any customer credit card information from retail or online purchases such as Click-N-Ship, the Postal Store, PostalOne!, change of address or other services was compromised, the service said.

At this point, who hasn't been hacked? Home Depot, Target, Sears/Kmart, etc etc. Just add it to the list.
