Google Cache Reveals UK Cardholders’ Details

0 Comments | This entry was posted on Mar 31 2009

It has been reported that Google’s cache feature has revealed the credit card details of more than 19,000 UK residents. The details are said to have been cached due to clumsy cybercriminals and subsequently spidered by Google’s bots.

The cache feature of Google is something which allows users to view a webpage which is days, sometimes weeks old. This is useful for some internet users if the target web page or web site has been taken offline for what ever reason.

In this instance various sensitive details were found including; 16 digit numbers, expiry dates, names and addresses of the Visa, American Express and Mastercard users. These were found after a web server in Vietnam, used by cyber criminals, was shut in February.

The majority of the cards have been cancelled now to prevent any further illegal activities taking place on those credit cards and Google has stepped in advising us that it has removed the content from its cache and has reiterated the fact that webmasters can use existing Google tools to remove any sensitive information from the search giant’s cache.

Hello!

Its been a while since my last blog post but I’m at least making it a good one!

I have spent a couple of months developing my latest project which is http://www.fetchmp3.com. It is a unique site that allows you to search for videos on popular video sites, and download the MP3 version of a particular video.

This site is one of a kind. You don’t need to navigate to a million pages, or download some spyware infested programme. The website will do it all seamlessly – you’ll love it!

Have a look at this video of the site in use, it is unbelievably simple.

Watch out for new features, as there are plenty in the works, believe me!
