In the mail today we got a new set of credit cards. Our current ones have been working fine and are valid for another year but since the Target data breach I suppose the banks aren’t taking any chances.
A letter from the bank reads:
“Dear Customer:
Please begin to use this new credit card to protect yourself after the Target breach.
Thank you for being a loyal customer. Here’s your new credit card to help protect you after the recent data breach at Target stores.”
I noted that, like the old cards, the new cards do not include a smart chip that would go a long way towards preventing the next data breach.
