"Target: 40M card accounts may be breached"

"Target says that about 40 million credit and debit card accounts may have been affected by a data breach that occurred just as the holiday shopping season shifted into high gear."

"The chain said that customers who made purchases using their cards at its U.S. stores between Nov. 27 and Dec. 15 may have been exposed."

"Target Corp. advised customers who suspect there has been unauthorized activity on their cards should call them at 866-852-8680."

"Target’s announcement came one day after a security blogger, Brian Krebs, first reported the breach."

This is nothing, wait until the hackers get done with the Obamascam websites and steal all the personal info those poor saps will put up to get health insurance.

Target needs to be sued into oblivion over this. Trying to do this to Urkel will be much more difficult.

And, yes, I pay cash.
