The latest internet violation

Just wanted to remind you of the "Security researchers say a Russian crime ring has pulled off the largest known theft of confidential Internet information, including 1.2 billion username and password combinations and more than 500 million email addresses."

You may want to check on your internet accounts.

    Yep. That's why I pointed it out.

  • So far I'm taking that whole report with a huge grain of salt. The only people who know who that "Russian crime ring" is, won't identify them without being paid first. And they won't tell you what web sites are affected without being paid. Their website reads like a third world English translation.

    The whole thing sounds like a super scam to me.
