Important: Computer Geeks (Geeks.com) Reportedly Hacked

The Consumerist.com reports popular Internet vendor Computer Geeks (Geeks.com) has incurred a security breach allowing customer data to be compromised. If anyone has made purchases there in recent times using a credit card, and apparently especially a Visa card, it would probably be a good idea to read the report, the attached email, and follow the instructions.

It's been a few years, but we had ordered out credit reports a few days ago and nothing odd. Yet . . .

Humorous to see the "Hacker Safe" logo. Poor McAfee. I did read how they pretty much said it's ". . . not 100% . . .".
