Don't get me wrong.. I lost out big too. Back in 2007 (same year as this thread funnily enough..) I nearly lost about 5k through fraudulent VV transactions.. never did find out how my number ccv2, etc was leaked. PIX firewall and BSD firewall infront of that.. all patched.. clean systems etc.. clearly some vendors fault.. Anyhoo.. took a bunch of emails and such to Michael'O and even Chris who simply CC'd it to Shaliza with a note: "please look after this gentleman" but about 3 months later got it all back.. Kinda wish I didn't now.. would have caused me to pack up and saved me a tonne 3 years later.. Chris even mentioned this in his (and his company's) defence in an email he sent me in 2012 (privileged email so won't post it).. to back up his 95% have been paid story..
