Identity theft feared in Cingular store break-in
SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER STAFF
EVERETT -- More than 600 customers may have had such personal information as names, Social Security or credit card numbers stolen during a break-in last week at a Cingular Wireless store at 210 S.W. Everett Mall Way.
The affected customers received letters this week alerting them to the possibility of identity or bank theft. They include customers who signed cellular phone contracts and bought products at the store.
The thieves who broke in March 26 stole computers and business records from a locked storeroom that contained the information, according to John Hofer, district manager for GoWireless, Cingular's authorized agent.
"We felt it was necessary as a corporation to let our customers know that this information could have been jeopardized," he said.
None of the customers who have contacted the company so far has been a victim of fraud, he said.

Phone calls- not required by law, and generally not accepted as a trackable form of communication. No negligence- not actionable.

Cingular was negligent.

Who cares if you think Cingular was negligent? Are you a Cingular customer? Why does it make a difference to you what they do and how they handle their business?

Again Cingular was negligent.

After Berkley and Jenkins' data base was compromised, they didn't contact any of their customers to advise them. My credit card issuer closed the credit card and opened a new one. They sent me a letter notifying me that they did this AFTER they had closed the account and BEFORE they issued me a new card with the new account number on it!
BJ's never mentioned anything about the problem they had either in a communication to me or a notice posted in their retail locations!

Which information was compromised? If it was limited to the credit card number and did not include sufficient information for anyone to steal identities, AND if BJ's assumed all of the risk to accounts held with them, then BJ's did the proper thing.

Cellphone customers warned of ID theft
Herald staff
EVERETT -- Cingular Wireless is warning up to 650 local customers that their account information -- including some credit card numbers -- was stolen from a Go Wireless store in Everett last week, police said.
The personal information was kept on two computers at the store, 210 SW Everett Mall Way Suite B. Burglars broke in about 3:30 a.m. March 26 and stole 28 cellphones, caused extensive damage and took the computers, said Everett Sgt. Boyd Bryant.
"The records in the computers are protected by passwords, so it may be tougher to access them," Bryant said. "The company hopes that the suspects are not able to get the information from the computers."
Cingular sent out letters alerting customers, but "we don't have any documented cases where someone's identity was taken (from the computers) and used to defraud them of money," Boyd said.
No arrests have been made, he said.
Anyone with information about the burglary is asked to call the Everett Police Department Tip Line at 425-257-8450.
For more information about identity theft, visit the Everett Police Department's Web site at www.everettwa.org/police and click on prevention brochures.

Scott Stephenson - 05 Apr 2004 01:00 GMT > It really wasn't a Cingular Wireless store, it wasn an authorized agent. Hmmm- guess Cingular didn't need the Kelly girls after all, did they Robert?
And I guess if customers did get letters from Cingular, they went WAY above and beyond for their customers- after all, it wasn't even their store. Wouldn't you agree, Robert?
If you have any problems with this, Robert, have a chat with your son, the lawyer- he'll explain the total lack of liability on Cingular's part.

Even better, and a fact that you left out until now. Sort of a 'guilt by omission' scenario. With all that said, can you explain your rantings about Cingular liability when:
-they didn't own the store. -they don't employ any of the people responsible for securing the store. -they had no connection to the break-in, other than some of their subscribers were affected.
Would they be liable if the bank they do business with had the same type of break-in?
So, genius- I'll be interested to hear Cingular's liability, now that all of the facts are out.
And if this was a pissing match, why are you smelling like sh.t?

Only an absolute moron like you would immediately think lawsuit. But that is your answer to everything. People like you are the reason that normal people have such a hard time getting assistance form these companies. You lie, whine and take up valuable time that people with real problems could use, and when all else fails, you immediately threaten some form of legal action. You openly advocate lying to these companies in order to bypass their policies, which unfortunately become even harder to deal with because of morons like you who abuse the system. You are a classic example of 'me first- f.ck everybody else'.

They also have a duty to assist any customer who suffers *ANY* loss arising from that theft.
What happens if a particular customer's credit history could have been saved, but wasn't because of a week or more delay in attempting to contact that customer, his refinancing falls through? Or the car loan is denied?

Maintain and keep secure. Hence their liability.
Scott Stephenson - 04 Apr 2004 00:17 GMT > Maintain and keep secure. Hence their liability. Maintained and secured in a LOCKED room in a LOCKED store. No liability, other than to notify the affected customers that a theft had occurred. Do a google on Wells Fargo- you'll see the same thing happened to them not too long ago.

Not permanently, but there seems to have been a lag between recognition that the theft occurred and notification to affected customers. I didn't say they were leaving the customers out in the cold, but my point was that any undue delay in providing notification increased exposure to affected customers' credit.

Now, let me get this straight- the information taken were things like names, addresses, SS#, and credit card #'s. Now, other than cancelling credit cards (which are going to be protected anyway), just what would these people have done about the other information in that week. Moved? Changed names?
Mr.Excitement - 04 Apr 2004 03:58 GMT They (we) would have called the 3 major credit agencies and put a fraud watch on their SSN's and got their names off of the pre-approved credit card mailings list. They would have also called the SS Administration and had THEM flag the number for fraud.
Yep, that's what "they" are supposed to do. I'm surprised you didn't know that, as you seem to know alot.............. maybe even everything?

I knew all that, and unlike you, I know that the few precious days that you guys are freaking out about pale in comparison to the 30+ days it takes the credit bureaus to process the fraud alert. Nice try, though.

See genius, this is called a pissing contest, and much like you're opinion it doesn't work very well.

A Customer Friendly outfit, would have instantly hired Kelly Girls and started telephoning Customers so they would know the same day, not 3 or more days later when they got their mail.
Mr.Excitement - 04 Apr 2004 03:53 GMT 8 days between the time of the break in and the time I rec'd the letter.

Usually it is the policy for credit card companies NOT to divulge the addresses or [phone numbers of their card holders and in fact in some states it is forbidden by law for a merchant to ask a customer for these data!
BruceR - 04 Apr 2004 20:39 GMT Of course, no matter what they did they'd be open to lawsuits. These days nothing is off limits. Proving the identity theft was directly caused by the break-in and further proving that faster notice would have prevented it would be VERY difficult to prove unless Plaintiff could show that the perpetrator obtained the information from the break-in and not from another source and that the identity theft incidents occured prior to the notice. The best indication of the validity of such a suit would be the willingness of a good lawyer to accept the case on a contingency basis.

They took REASONABLE precautions to secure the information. It was not left out in the open and was not thrown out without shredding. It was locked up as it should be.

He's the biggest liar on the newsgroups, he misquotes prior replies, he demunges email addresses ... and oh by the way, changes IDs faster than a speeding bullet ...
He's denied having ATTWS service, yet says he's received his first bill (in this newsgroup and this newsgroup only) on December 16th.
For those of you who aren't aware, here's a list of his known prior IDs, going back to last summer. Sorry if looks a bit crowded, but I send posts via plain text.

Scott Stephenson - 04 Apr 2004 18:26 GMT > my son is. Then the answer is "no".

There was a bus full of Lawyers in Tahoe on a fishing day from a conference. On the way back to the hotel the bus went over a cliff and they all died!
Do you know the definition of a crying shame?
There were 3 empty seats!

Most of what the agents do is web based. They won't get nearly as much off the machines as they will from the paper files that we're lifted....................genius.

Further proof that Darwin was right. That is, unless you are stupid enough to think that a contracted dealer has paper files on ALL CIngular customers. What? They don't? Then I guess your answer really doesn't pertain. Imagine that.

Keep up with the conversation.
