UK: Namesco spits out phishy warning after credit card info leak

Posted on January 13, 2012 by Dissent

John Leyden reports:

Namesco customers are angry over the domain name and hosting firm’s handling of a security breach that exposed their credit card details.

A number of punters’ card details were leaked after hackers broke into Namesco’s systems. The web biz notified these customers as well as advising a larger number of its clients to reset their passwords as a precaution.

Namesco warned that users’ account administration email, account names, dates of birth, contact numbers and postal addresses may also have been exposed by the breach, adding: “we have no reason to believe your site administration or email passwords have been affected”.
