  Very true..I doubt FMA has their own setup.  They are probably part of a network of online stores.

  That's the truth. A lock only keeps an honest man honest.

   

  From what I gathered it wasn't FMA that was compromised, it was their payment processor, which begs the question how many other businesses are impacted by this breach.

    Matt,

     

    The security symbol would not have helped here.  I'm sure FMA has a fairly secure site.  Their database was what was compromised.  Technology improves daily for this type of fraud.but so do the people doing it.

    That is why I am so leary of using a credit card somewhere like that.   Plus I do always check if the website has a little security symbol on the bottom of the page.

            If any of you have recently bought products on line from FMA Direct using a credit card, check your credit card account.  FMA's database has been compromised/hacked and whoever has the information is making charges against the credit cards.  I read this in the electric forum on Ezonemag.com.    Sure enough, when I brought up my VISA account, there was a NAPSTER charge there so I cancelled the card.  You might want to check yours if you've done business on line with FMA recently.
