iBill Loses 17 Million Porn Customer Records
What the hell is it with companies losing their customers financial information lately? iBill — a company the primarily handles credit card transactions on porn sites — has just admitted that the financial records of over 17 million customers has been leaked to the Internet.
Luckily, credit card numbers aren’t included in the leaked information… but that’s about all that isn’t included. Data that is included includes customers’ names, phone numbers, addresses, e-mail addresses, internet IP addresses, logins, passwords, credit-card types and purchase amounts.
I’m not a porn enthusiast, so this doesn’t really effect me, but Ben, you might want to call your credit card company, just to be on the safe side.
