Capital One Database Problem?

Earlier today I received an email from Capital One asking me to “Take a moment to update your phone number, mail, and e-mail addresses.” The problem is the message was not addressed to me, but instead to someone else. And the line that says “Re: Your account number ending in xxxx” had four digits in place of the xxxx. They weren’t the last four digits of my account number. I think Capital One is having some major problems with their customer database.

I called them, and they denied there was a problem. I forwarded the note to them at abuse@capitalone.com. The links in the message were all at capitalone.com, so I don’t think it was a phishing attempt. And I use a unique email address whenever I register somewhere, so I don’t think the phishers could have used it to contact me.

  • @cloudflare When you tell us "investigating an attack at (someplace)" is that an attack on CloudFlare, or on one of your clients? #
  • @cloudflare Could you make the text on your blog darker? The gray is hard to read on a white background. Thanks #
  • @eastdakota Thx, should we list more than two CF-DNS servers to reduce the impact on our sites if someone else is attacked?? #

Ultimate Category Excluder 0.8

Ultimate Category Excluder has been upgraded to version 0.8. You may download Ultimate Category Excluder from WordPress.org. The only change made was a new feature, which has been frequently asked for, to allow all categories to appear on the list of categories able to be excluded, even those categories which don’t have any posts yet.

Let me know of any problems you discover.
