More Hacked Stores to Come Forward?

More Hacked Stores to Come Forward?
As reports detail security breaches that hit customers at Target and Neiman Marcus, experts expect more retailers to reveal leaks. Hack Came from Abroad?

The word button that starts with "More hacked------" will take you to a news video on the subject. So, it is very likely that more stores will declare there being hacked over time in order to reduce their public liability to their customers and the customers credit and identity problems that might occur in the future.

The solution partly is to put a chip in every ATM and Credit card in the U.S. just like Europe and Asian nations have already done because of these kinds of problems there. Security in businesses in the U.S. is lacking and needs to be sped up especially if 1/3 of the people in the U.S. (110 million might already be potentially having problems regarding their credit card numbers or identities through identity theft on into the future. Not having enough security is very expensive and time consuming to correct.

Remember, Internet fraud already causes 1 trillion dollars in losses around the world already every year.

note: if you click on "More hacked----" above you likely will have to listen to an advertisement before you watch the 3 minute news video presentation.
