meh…. i should probably change all 308,938,392 of my online passwords now right?
its been a while since i changed everything… i dont use the same thing for everything though… i recently changed my intl outdoor pass because i forgot it … but who knows when the sql dump is from
Well that sucks, I didn’t use a password that is used elsewhere and my info is all over anyways… I’m not really worried but it’s still disheartening to see this happen in what used to be a moderately trusted business. Such is the reality of the web nowadays, things are never completely secure (Which is why I’m never completely trusting, least here on the webs).
As a BLF member who has purchased from the company, I would like it if someone would PM me the method, or link to access my data that they are saying is on the internet, and which they are looking at.
And as BLF member who thinks it is for the best for as few people as possible to know about this stuff, I would encourage anyone who found it to refrain from doing that.
Brad, I offered to send you your information; however I still feel it is best not to share this. If I give you the link than I have to give it to everyone, and then the bots will pick it up.
Makes me glad I have not shopped with them yet. Was going to but didn’t get around to placing my order. Makes me NEVER EVER want to shop with them in the future. Don’t need the risk.
Unless you are very protective of your privacy, that’s pretty much the same as the phone book gives out.
So don’t worry, you’re probably not a burglar’s target just because of the XinTD you may have bought.
I expect some spam, maybe targeted, as the database is a valuable resource for other related businesses. It also reveals some of intl-outdoor’s turnover.
Although it’s probably not difficult to put names to some BLF logins, as some people may have put “Hi, I’m Ralph on BLF/CPF” in the order comments. I know I did.
Thanks SC, name and address have been out there my whole life. House is a dump and not much worth taking but it’s my dump. Or will be, maybe, someday. Okay, the bank(new one this week) still owns most of the part above ground.
