Wiggle site possibly not hacker safe

[Jonathan Schneider]

I've just emailed Wiggle pointing out that although they sport a
HackerSafe logo it has been shown that sites with it can still be
susceptible to some attacks.

Also they defrauded their investors.

I bet they sell 'Sold Secure' locks that are still susceptible to attacks
too. Disgraceful!

This is more like it. How did they do this, and why were they not
prosecuted?

Gosh - you mean 99% doesn't mean 'absolutely every'. I'm so glad you
pointed that out to them. Given that the supplier doesn't claim that
sticking on their logo makes it invulnerable to everything, why do you
think Wiggle need this highlighting? Do you have a logo I can put on
my web site that will make it invulnerable to everything? Will it
also wear underpants on the outside?

Ah. What investors? You're not an ISIS Equity Partners sock puppet,
by any chance, are you?

Have you warned any other sites sporting the HackerSafe logo?

Wiggle could sue you for libel if you can't prove your allegation.

Which on-line cycle retailer do you work for?

He's not talking about Wiggle, but I think he's rather confused: a
former VP at the company that owned Hacker Safe before McAfee bought it
has been indicted on charges of investment fraud in connection with a
different company.

I could name another online cycle shop that were reported to their bank
by my card issuer for leaking data, probably unwittingly. Everyone who
used one of this particular issuer's cards to purchase there within a
certain period in 2006 got scammed.

I've used them since and all was OK, so I think they've tightened security.
