The most INSANE thing I have seen on the internet this year. EA posts credit card information live

Am I in the twilights zone?

I wanted to call and ***** about the fact I can't use my Xbox / Windows store money for purchasing of EA access. So I stumble upon this poor person's thread.

Did an EA employee really just do that :crying:? Wow - why hack a company when they're so transparent.

That's not a EA Employee, that's just some random and silly consumer who posted their CC info...

Its the same thing as when people who don't know better post their email address, IMEI, etc. on these forums.

If I posted my credit card info here, (assuming I have one) Windows Central didn't leak it, now did it?

 

[Christian Matthew]

oh... lol... then why is there an EA symbol by her name? I thought it was an employee responding to the first poster.

its a default avatar I presume.
it IS an EA board.

 

[ncxcstud]

Yeah, its just a default avatar. The user above her has an EA icon too. Thankfully a mod came in and edited her info... albeit after 2 hours...

This is crazy. I don't think a credit card company will wave any charges to her card if any show up, considering she posted that information. Just odd.

Her post says something about canceling the card, then getting re-billed. So, with any luck, she had already canceled that card. Otherwise, just wow. Either she posted it because she knew it was canceled and didn't see anything to worry about, or she's a total ***** and would probably benefit from a rough life lesson.

I can't believe someone literally just posted their CC info in a public forums like that...I guess she never learned cyber security way back in 1998
