HONG KONG (AP) — Hackers stole account information of more than 360,000 of Citigroup Inc.'s U.S. credit card customers in a recent data breach, the bank said Wednesday, almost double the number initially thought.

Citi said last week that about 1 percent of its credit card customers had account information hacked online but did not say exactly how many. The actual number of customers affected was thought to be about 200,000, based on Citi's 2010 annual report, which said the company had roughly 21 million North American credit card customers.

But the true number was actually 360,083, the bank said in a statement posted on its website late Wednesday.

The bank said it discovered on May 10 that hackers used its Account Online system to access the data for North America Citi-branded credit cards issued in the U.S.

The bank said last week that hackers accessed customer names, account numbers and contact information, including e-mail addresses.

But they weren't able to get their hands on social security numbers, dates of birth, card expiration dates or card security codes, information that can be useful in identity theft.

Internal fraud alerts and enhanced monitoring were placed on all accounts deemed at risk as soon as the breach was discovered, Citi said.

Letters were sent starting June 3 to people affected, and 217,657 customers have also been sent new cards, Citi said. Replacement cards were not sent to the others because the accounts were closed or they had already been sent new cards for other reasons.

Citi said it has notified police and government officials.

"For the security of our customers, and because of the ongoing law enforcement investigation, we cannot disclose further details regarding how the data breach occurred," it said.

Citi reassured customers that they weren't liable for any unauthorized use of their cards and urged them to review account statements to report any suspicious transactions.

It's the latest in a series of high-profile data attacks against big companies and institutions. The International Monetary Fund said Sunday that it was investigating an attack on its computer system.
Google Inc. said earlier this month that Gmail accounts of several hundred people had been breached. In April, Sony Corp.'s Playstation Network was the victim of a massive security breach that affected more than 100 million online accounts.

Eric in SF says: Cut your losses and move on. Delete your account if it makes you feel better, but expecting detailed answers is unrealistic. Flickr is a private business and is not answerable to you. Your only power in this game is the press and your continued business.

No, Flickr reserves the right to delete an account for no reason. Seriously. Read the Terms and Conditions before you go too far with this.

Eric in SF says:

“Hi there,

Like I said before, we saw behavior in your account that
went against our guidelines and required us to take action -
which was to delete your account. Our guidelines apply to
any and all content you post on Flickr – photos you upload,
comments you make, group discussions you participate in,
etc.

I am afraid I cannot give you any more specific information
than this.

Thank you for your understanding,
Cathryn”

Can't get any clearer than that.

I saw a card designed somewhere on flickr and really enjoyed it - so I tried to do my own take on it. I think combining this card and some elements of a card posted yesterday could make something interesting... thoughts?

Tuesday 9th February

I decided to show the world what's in my bag today as my photo of the day. I don't think it changes that much, day to day for me. So here's what's in my bag:

Wallet, Carmex, pack of tissues, cheque book, Extra chewing gum, Nurofen, a few post it notes with things i need to do, Senheisser earphones, mobile phone, hand cream, Impulse spray, Oyster Card, Pen, little bag i use for my camera, hair brush and micro USB cable for my Zen MP3 player.


Post Graduation

I've learned a few things about the person who lost the memory card.
I know that he graduated from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Prescott, Arizona.
I've also learned that this was his girlfriend at the time.

**While surveying out in Denali Park, miles from the nearest road, I found a 1GB memory card that still works. It seems to have wintered somewhere around the Stampede Trail along the Teklanika River.

Here is a link to the story of how I found the card, and a link to the conclusion of how I found the memory card's owner.
