If your credit cards are lost or stolen, contact the issuer(s) immediately.
Most credit card companies have toll-free numbers and 24-hour service to deal with these emergencies -- they are eager to avoid credit card fraud.
According to US law, once you have reported the loss or theft of your credit card, you have no more responsibility for unauthorized charges. Further, your maximum liability under federal US law is $50 per credit card -- and many credit card issuers will even waive that fee for good customers.
If you follow all these tips, it will go a long way in protecting you from credit card fraud.
TFsource.com wrote:Hi All -
We appreciate this being brought to our attention right away. We've been working on this diligently and have implemented several other security precautions on our site immediately regardless of the route cause of the issue. Anyone who feels they may have been compromised, or wants us to delete their card information, is more than willing to email us and we'll be happy to do so. At the same time I want to let all know that I am confident in the security of the site, and even my information is registered on TFsource.
Regarding credit card data, it's not stored on TFSource, it is stored on a secure 3rd party's site, one that hosts many famous and household name sites, that's why we selected this resource. It's always possible a section of their data has been compromised but we have not been notified as such.
Regarding access to this data, no one at TFsource has this access, except for me, and rest assured I am not using anyone's data to make fraudulent purchases as TFsource has always had a high level of integrity and that's not something that we're going to change.
Anyone that feels they have had information compromised as a result of our site, or even potentially is more than welcome to email me directly. We've been working all morning with our coding team working full force on looking at any potential security issues, and will work to ensure everyone's information is safe and secure when accessing TFsource now and in the future.
Thanks,
Curt

I appreciate your concern for BBTS users and their information - BBTS has spent considerable time and resources to make sure our customers' financial data is safe. We are PCI compliant and additionally do not store full credit card information on our servers. All information is securely kept and processed by Paypal, our credit card processing gateway. Because cards are stored by Paypal, no employee or owner at BBTS has access to your full credit card information, we can only view the first 4 and last 4 digits. We also invest heavily in intrusion prevention and monitoring systems that protect our systems from any type of attack. Our systems are tested daily for vulnerabilities and are monitored by a staff of security experts 24 hours a day.
Thanks!

So far it seems to be credit card purchases only, paypal is fine.
