Performance Nissan hacked alert.

I was wondering if anyone else got a letter from PerformanceNissan.com stating there system was hacked and credit information with other personal information could be infiltrated.

I haven't seen anything wierd with my credit card or anything yet but did anyone else get this letter?

RE: Notification of Security Breach of Compromising Your Credit Card

As Vice President and General Manager of Performance Nissan, I am sorry to inform you that several days ago our company was victimized by an intruder who illegally "hacked" into our Parts Department web server located at our hosting company. Two of our websites were compromised -- PerformanceNissanParts.com and MyNismo.com. Unfortunetly, this exposed the intruder to the names, addresses and credit card information of customers who made online purchases of parts from us. We deepy regret this incident and apologize for having to send this notifcation to you.

This is just the first part.. lazy to type the rest..

Yup, my mom called me to let me know she received the letter a few days ago.

I guess I wasn't as lucky as you all. About 2 months ago, I noticed 2 bogus charges on my CC. One was for $25 for AOL and another was for $13 for Vendio Services. I called my CC company immediately and canceled my card, as well as disputed the charges. I was credited these charges, but it was a scary situation knowing someone has all your information.

I got my letter a couple of days ago. Here are some of the other threads. Normally I might be annoyed by all the reposts, but this is important enough that it's probably a good thing it keeps getting posted. Maybe one of these threads should be stickied for a while...?

Performance Nissan not working for anyone else?

PerformanceNissanParts.com

Performance Nissan in Duarte, CA
