Targets Dishonesty Continues......

When Target originally announced their sub par offshored programming allowed 40 million credit cards to be stolen it was a jaw dropping number. 

Of course it was a dishonest number because then it was revealed that is was actually 70 million. 

But of course that was dishonest number too because now it is up to 110 Million. 

Corporations being dishonest….Hard to believe I know.

Now we learn -

“Not only did Target’s announcement on Friday disclose a vastly expanded universe of credit and debit theft victims, but it revealed that the hackers stole a broader trove of data than originally reported. The company now says that other kinds of information were taken, including mailing and email addresses, phone numbers and names.”

“Target still has not explained how hackers accessed the data, saying it remains under investigation.”

I can explain it. The NY Times should call me. I can explain the whole thing. Target wanted to save money so they outsourced their programming. The result was the programming was sub par and hackers easily went in and took whatever they liked. It is the same story I have read 1 billion times before. Target isn’t anxious to come forward and reveal this info because it is real embarrassing. I have no problem revealing it though. I can tell you all about it.
