Thanks to one of our readers we get word this morning of a data breach that occurred last month. This database compromise affected customers of ihomeaudio.com timexaudio.com and kiddesigns.com.
A letter was posted on January 26, 2010 informing our reader of the data breach. Upon reviewing bank transactions it became apparent that the card was compromised before January 17, 2010 when erroneous transactions began to appear on his statement. It is unclear from the letter when the breach actually took place.
The rather disconcerting aspect is that SDI Technologies, the parent company, did not offer any sort of credit services but, merely suggested to customers that they monitor their credit and links to download free copies of their reports.
Here is a screen cap thumbnail of part of the letter.
Oddly there it doesn’t appear to be any mention of the breach on their websites.
