I got an im from someone with a rocketprofit name that says my info had been comprimised.


[16:45] hotrocketmark: None of your information is secure with Rocket Profit. Your billing information, social security number, email/address have all been archived/sold for profit. You should reconsider your dealings with "Rocket Profit"

Thats weird cause I've rarely sent them any traffic but they do have my info.

Looks like some RocketProfit employees AIM accounts got hacked. Here's an email I just received from them:

I'd say that it's probably a bit of both worlds.

I had my info sold by some bastard Indian at a datacenter that housed all the info for one of the job recruitment firms I was signed up with.
Got a call from my bank asking why I was setting up and funneling money into accounts in the Virgin Islands, and why I hadn't notified them I was leaving the country (a security precaution I have for one of my credit cards. Doesn't work outside of a nominated country without notification).

I'm always REALLY sus of places that ask for my citizenry number instead of an AustralianBusiness or TaxFile number
 
Yeah I got the same AIM message, but dismissed it as either a pissed off ex-employee or a pissed off affiliate.
