Now, I can’t help but to find the rather high level of amusement with this news. Apparently hackers have managed to access AT&T systems and purloined credit cards for “fewer than 19,000” customers.
The company said it noticed the hacking “within hours,” immediately shut down the online store, notified credit card companies and is working with law enforcement agencies to investigate the incident and find the hackers.
Now I can’t help but wonder if AT&T actually “noticed” the hacking or if the folks at the NSA processed the information for them and provided the output.
Sorry, I couldn’t resist.
