terrorists in the financial district, your CC?

[fnfredux]

When you phone in about your CC, odds are you're speaking to someone in Mumbai. Pretty sacry when you think about it, busiest shoping day of the year, CC center besieged by terrorists...all of those incoming calls/charges. And our GVT just handed over another 25 Billion to Citi...maybe the "terrorists are imitating the Libian pirates, just on a grander scale. Too bad, we used to have big stick for these occassions. If anyone thinks this attack is anything BUT inspired by Muslims and their hatred for all people and things that are NOT, think again.
By the way, those "terrorists," I am sure will end up with almost EVERY American name, address and SSN AND the banking records to boot.
Now we're ready for some real terror.

Good call.
I have no credit cards, thank goodness.
My bank is local. If they get *absorbed* by a larger bank that has call centers out of the country, I will shut my account down immediately.

Dear Fnfredux,

This underscores not only the need to get banks back to being local again, but it underscores the need for civilians and business to have encryption technology at least as strong as anything the government has. If someone is out to murder or convert you, then the last thing you want to give them is the knowledge of where you live or where your money is located.

Fortunately, I only use debit cards and I do not bank. Tough Shi'ite, Bin Laden.

;D

How do you have debit cards without banking? ???
