WARNING to Crafters: Michaels breach IMPORTANT
14 years ago
I found out about this earlier this month, kiiiiind of didn't pay as much attention as I should though. My partner just got his account compromised and I am on my way out the door to deal with my own. 8D Hind sight and all that.
If you have been to a Michaels craft store in the past four months and used a debit card you need to go change your pin or get a new card, whichever you feel safer with.
There is a list of compromised stores and info here: http://www.michaels.com/Corporate-|.....efault,pg.html
If you have friends or family who are crafters be sure to let them know!

They've actually been pretty responsible about it overall. I mean yah, it sucks that it happened but they acted quickly afterward to remove the tampered PIN pads and report to banks that accounts may have been compromised instead of trying to sweep it under the rug. X3 I'm terribly curious as to how exactly they were tampered with but that's not the sort of information that's likely to get released. XD

I've actually been to two different ones on the list in the past four months but thankfully my account has been untouched. 8D My partner is really unlucky though. I think his account is made of candy, he's had his info stolen like four times in the past two years. XD
