Do you wonder how safe & secure your credit card data is? A retailer in the UK by the name of TK Maxx (not to be confused with US chain TJ Maxx) recently revealed that hackers accessed the personal data of almost half a million customers from the clothing chain’s computer systems. It’s a little scary to think that a company you trusted to keep your information secure left that information available for hackers to access. I know that with all of the mail we get each week offering to refinance our house, and switch our balances on credit cards using
0% balance transfers, and all sorts of other junk - there are a LOT of people out there with our personal information already. Is your credit card company protecting you? Are they selling your name and data to other companies and making a profit on your personal information?
