Eggcellently Deplorable Re-Instate Smith-Mundt! User ID: 12916799 United States 09/08/2017 03:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | so far everyone at work that checked is compromised. thats about 20 people so far. Quoting: Russian hacker This is huuuuuge Yup, I'm impacted. Sure enough. Motherfuckers, this should be the biggest class action lawsuit in history. Not if everyone is checking their status and agreeing to not be part of a suit. I would think that there would be some sort of legal recourse against the company heads who sold all their stock for millions before announcing the big ooops. "I have come to the conclusion that all news should be treated like 9/11, assume it is a psyop with actors participating in a staged event complete with props, until proven otherwise, in which case assume whatever is being recorded, reported, televised, is distortions/lying by omission/outright lies, until proven otherwise." - Anonymous, 4-13-12 |
Eggcellently Deplorable Re-Instate Smith-Mundt! User ID: 12916799 United States 09/08/2017 03:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Don't they have a legal obligation to let those compromised know, without this clause that by checking you give up rights to sue? Quoting: Kraut the Deplorable Yes, and they will mail out notices. Do NOT click that link. So we WILL learn, this is just a "service" for those too impatient to wait?

Buffalo_Gal_13 User ID: 72413846 United States 09/08/2017 03:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Exactly - and now WE have to jump through how many hoops to find out if there is even a way to repair the damage they have done to US? OK "something's not quite right!". This is way more serious than it appears at initial reading. Maybe we should start our own GLP class action lawsuit. Any attorney's want to be in charge? All these credit reporting agencies need to be taken down. I didn't give these fuckers permission to gather and store all my private info, did you? It's unconstitutional and as we can now see detrimental to society. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75159969 Last Edited by Buffalo_Gal_13 on 09/08/2017 03:41 PM |

Ashford User ID: 74583590 United States 09/08/2017 03:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Equifax has a site up now that you can use to check if your information is part of the hacked data. Let's be realistic, 143 million people, chances are huge that you are. Quoting: FyreStorm [link to www.equifaxsecurity2017.com (secure)] I checked. Site said I was not impacted, but the c*ck suckers put up a button to sign up for a premium service! Same here. |

FuegoMagnifico User ID: 14102964 United States 09/08/2017 03:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why would anyone enter their name and partial SS# into a site/database whose company was hacked? Why would you TRUST them? USE YOUR BRAINS FOR CRISSAKE. You will have legal recourse should the worst happen. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75431755 ^THIS They don't even want to publish the domain ownership information for their website. One GLPer reported he entered completely fake info into it and it told him he was compromised. And it has a sketchy TOS agreement waiving your rights to sue them. Yet some people here are still advising others to use it. LOL |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74919280 They collect and sell your information and make money that way, then charge you to protect yourself from the infomation they collect. RICO This and there is no opting out of it either, and its almost global in scale 3 big companies have the entire credit data of the western world, its one big shekel watching NWO shitshow. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 70797446 Puerto Rico 09/08/2017 04:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Since this IS a conspiracy site, how's this... Equifax's headquarters in Atlanta is VERY close to where that part of the highway collapsed. What if when they closed everything off and rebuilt the highway, someone just happened to "tap" into the fiber cables serving equifax (and possibly others). I think they re-opened the highway around May, and they said Equifax discovered the hack in July. It's easy to conceive that's a perfect time to tap into a company's commputers when the ground is being dug up, and it's also very possible it took the company a couple months to figure it out! |

Terrebonne User ID: 75501260 United States 09/08/2017 04:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So this is the second time my information has been hacked. I've been compromised with Equifax and as a former U.S. government employee I was compromised by a hack back in June of 2015, I was given free credit protection then. The likely hood of using my information is low, because I have a very common English surname, less than 5,000 people in all of USA have the same surname. 22 Million Affected by OPM Hack, Officials Say [link to abcnews.go.com] .
