*HACKERS* MAJOR COMPANIES AFFECTED BY SECURITY BREACH!!


There's no telling how many people have been affected by a massive electronic security breach. Hackers broke into the customer data of email marketing company Epsilonand accessed some of customers' personal information, including their emails.

The major U.S. companies reporting the security compromise include 
Citigroup, Walgreen's, TiVo, Capital One, Home Shopping Network (HSN), and possibly, some of the seven million students affiliated with the "College Board," the organization that does the SATs.

There are no reports that anyone's financial information has been compromised .

Other large companies Epsilon does business with include:
Verizon, Hilton Hotels, Kraft Foods, and AstraZeneca.

If you've signed up for email newsletters for any of those companies, you could possibly be affected.

Some companies have already started alerting customers their personal emails may have been hacked, but others have yet to do so.

If you'd like to file a complaint with the New York State Attorney General's Office, 
click on this link, fill out the forms, and send the information in to the various agencies, as directed.

New Currency???: Google Money


"Google has teamed up with Mastercard and Citigroup to create a near-field communication mobile payment system on Android phones, the Wall Street Journal reports, citing several people familiar with the companies’ plans.

On the customer end, the technology would allow payments simply by waving an Android device in front of a NFC reader. To do that, owners of Citigroup-issued debit and credit cards would have to activate a special Android app (in development for one current and many upcoming Android devices, the WSJ claims).

This is where Google comes in: It would offer retailers data about their customers and help them deliver targeted ads and discounted offers to Android users near their stores. Instead of getting a cut of the transaction fees, Google would make money by selling these ads." Full Article -Via Mashable

Unfortunately, she jumped off a building in Manhattan on early Saturday morning. Many friends & colleges are puzzled why she took her life away. There wasn't a suicide note found & police don't have a motive for her suicide."
