Heard this on the car radio last night. Glad I stayed away from Target on Black Friday!

One of our tenants had their checkbook wiped out after using her debit card recently and she shops at Target everyday.

SMH I wonder if this is what happened to her?

I called Discover card and they have a recording that says we know about the breach at Target. I checked my few purchases and they are all correct. I haven't been to Target in a long while and wasn't too worried.

If you want to check you card just call 1-800-347-2683

email I got from Paypal today:

Dear ---------,
Following the recent announcement from Target about a data breach at their U.S. stores, we wanted you to know that our records show that a transaction was made on your PayPal Debit Card MasterCard® at a Target store between November 27 and December 15, 2013.

As a result, we wanted you to know that we’re actively monitoring your account activity for any signs of fraudulent activity. We also recommend that you review your transaction activity to make sure you are not impacted by any unauthorized purchases.

I got my email from Target last night. I guess it takes a long time to notify, what is it, 40 million people?  Oh, and I did use my Target RedCard in the store on the 30th.

Did you use your card at Target between the 27th of November and the 15th of December? 

I used mine so I plan on having them send me a new one with a new number.  I just haven't gotten around to it yet.  They say the thieves can hold on to the number and use it a long time later after you would have thought you'd be safe.  If you used your card at Target during the time period mentioned I would definitely get a new card.

Yes, as a credit card, I am at target all the time. Imonlyndo tiny transactions, such as toilet paper etc, never anything big
