Re: Nice Planet 14: You People Make Me Sick
You guys need to take off your tinfoil hats. They didn't hack and take control of Equifax or the credit market. At worst the credit history of Americans was stolen. That's hardly worth worrying about.
The Great Recession was because trillions of dollars were poorly invested and a once-in-a-lifetime* bubble burst.

Virtually nothing.
I don't think you guys understand the magnitude of what happened in the Great Recession.

Re: Nice Planet 14: You People Make Me Sick
I'm not sure what any of that has to do with what I wrote.
I'll give 5:1 that nothing even remotely close to what you loonballs are predicting happens.
Credit cards aren't going to have much impact since the consumer isn't going to pay for fraudulent charges. On top of that, if the breach was six months ago, most of the cards will have already been replaced or will be shortly. Credit card companies are getting very good at stopping fraud.
Credit history? Big deal. I'll tell you mine. Social security number and address? I would strongly prefer you didn't have it, but the smart consumer checks their credit report once a year. Most consumers who have credit cards now get their credit report monthly for free.
In order for what happened in 2008 to happen again from this breach, tens of millions of mortgages would need to be fraudulently taken out and allowed to go into default. Not going to happen.Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

Re: Nice Planet 14: You People Make Me Sick
We're not saying it's GONNA happen. The potential is there. Big time. BIG time. You just got 'splained to by people much smarter than I am in this sort of thing. This is a HUGE hack. Some people, because as you say they don't pay attention, will be affected. It's the end number of people that will determine the effect.Never really developed a taste for tequila.

Originally posted by FadeToBlack&Gold View PostI'm not the one predicting economic havoc.
This is still a massive info sec scandal emanating from a company whose business is confidential data and PII, not to mention the apparent insider trading.
It is a big security breach and I'm sure some people will set their hair on fire. The biggest thing to come of this will be the insider trading scandal.Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

That's probably good, because we'll forget about this by next year. Just like target, Home Depot, chipotle, Blue Cross, and every other major breach.

Re: Nice Planet 14: You People Make Me Sick
From the article on CNN:
Equifax is one of three nationwide credit-reporting companies that track and rates the financial history of U.S. consumers. The companies are supplied with data about loans, loan payments and credit cards, as well as information on everything from child support payments, credit limits, missed rent and utilities payments, addresses and employer history, which all factor into credit scores.Never really developed a taste for tequila.
