    Fukking Home Depot

    Got this memo this morning...knew all about it right when it happened and already protected myself from anything bad.
    But the fact that they just now (2 fukking months later) decided to notify their customers is outrages to say the least.



    Dear Valued Customer,

    The Home Depot has discovered that a file containing your email address may have been taken during the payment card breach we announced in September. The file contained email addresses, but it did not contain passwords, payment card information, or other sensitive personal information. We apologize for this incident and for the inconvenience and frustration this may cause you.

    In all likelihood this event will not impact you, but we recommend that you be on the alert for phony emails requesting personal or sensitive information. If you have any questions or would like additional information on how to protect yourself from email scams, please visit our website or call 1-800-HOMEDEPOT.

    Again, we apologize for the frustration and inconvenience this incident may have caused. Thank you for your continued support.

    Sincerely,

    The Home Depot

    Please do not reply to this email. To contact us call 1-800-HOMEDEPOT, or contact us at The Home Depot, Attn: Privacy Official, 2455 Paces Ferry Road, N.W., Atlanta, GA 30339-4024, USA.

    can't remember the brand, but it sure did work alright


    Don't be shy sport...tell everyone here how hard you had to cry to Shari and for how long, so she can let you back in here.
    I know the story, but I'm sure everyone here would love hear it directly from you.

    Btw how are those imagenery scars on your face? Use some jeez to help with the healing- I heard it does wonders for some people's faces.

    it's not that difficult to link email to someone's real name this days dude
    plus don't believe for a second that Home Depot is telling you everything - sometimes the company that has been hacked, even a company as big as HD, can miss things that were compromised...some companies will straight out lie to you about what was hacked and what wasn't to save their face (stock price)

    was doing a kitchen remodeling...purchased whole bunch of shit...but put it all on their HD CC...so I'm not worried about compromising that number...I did sign up for one of their promos with my email address though to get extra 15% off...so that's where this shit is coming from right now.

    only something like this, once he starts skyping with people while using your account, particularly your out-of-state boss who you've never met in person, similar employees, or the cops working undercover who he thinks are really young boys and not chris hanson........

    yup it happens all the time
    the best practice is to change all of your passwords every 3-6 months...don't keep the same password for all of your accounts...don't use the same email when you sign up for things...invest in credit monitoring service....and so on

    stay on top of your own security and don't think that something like this can't happen to you
