• The Register » Security » Egghead credit card hack: serious questions remain.
• It started with a tip from a Register reader whose bank advised him to cancel his Visa credit card after shopping at on-line retailer Egghead. com, then developed into a tour de force of public-relations worst practices, and finally ended in lingering doubts about whether Egghead's vehement claim that no credit card data was compromised during its Christmas hack is trustworthy.
• Initially, all we knew was what our reader told us: "Late last week my bank called to tell me that Egghead had told the Visa company that a large number of their customers credit card info had been accessed by a hostile cracker. ...
• We first replied to the reader asking the name of his or her bank; and then contacted Egghead. We were intensely curious because if our reader was right, we'd found a real discrepancy between what Egghead told Visa, and what they told the public, about the extent of the December attack.
• "Oh, this is nothing," Egghead PR bunny Robin Crandall chuckled to us in a flutey voice. ...
• Crandall suggested that the bank was needlessly alarming customers about an incident which Egghead had determined to be harmless. ...
• We assured her that we'd been around long enough to know that we already had a story, as the glaring discrepancy between Egghead's reassuring press release, and the decidedly skittish behavior of a bank which issues Visa cards, is news in itself. ...
• That little performance instantly concluded our friendly chat with Crandall, but soon yielded a phone call and e-mail memo from her supervisor, Egghead Corporate Communications VP Joanne Sperans Hartzell.
• Because the bank's Visa security officer never knew they were talking to the press, we won't quote him or her; but we will say that their understanding of the Egghead hack struck us as not quite in alignment with Hartzell's.
• "Surely the Egghead database was compromised; otherwise, why would Visa recommend that we cancel our customers' cards "?.
• Surely, if Egghead's version of events was accurate, there'd be no need for a bank to go to such lengths. ...
• A day later we obtained a letter written by Visa USA Senior VP and security specialist John Shaughnessy to card issuers warning about the Egghead hack, which unfortunately raised more questions than it answered.
• When we started this story we'd hoped to advise those of our readers who shopped at Egghead prior to the holiday hack as to whether canceling their credit cards would be a prudent move, or an overreaction; but thanks to Shaughnessy's irrational fear of explaining himself, we remain unprepared to do so.
• Ironically, Egghead's Hartzell approached us last week proposing to "put an end to the disinformation regarding the attack on our systems in December," but, as events would have it, she only contributed to it in the end. ...
