WARNING FOR PEOPLE THAT STAYED AT THE HOLIDAY INN FOR MWFF

I just saw on the news that the Holiday Inn and 8 other Joliet area hotels were busted for selling the credit card numbers of people who stayed at the hotel to other people for $100 each, it was estimated that they sold more than 10,000 card numbers. If you guys stayed there, keep an eye on your accounts. As I read or see more, I'll try to post it. I saw it on channel 7 news here, there is nothing on their website now, but there may be, it is http://www.abc7chicago.com.

Wow. That really sucks. I really hope this got caught fast enough to stop any problems for the card owners. Looks like me staying at the Motel 6 next door was a good idea.

that really sucks.

that's part of the reason i don't have a credit card... that and the fact that no one will approve me for one.

Why can't people just sleep on their saddles like the good ol' days. :?:

Oh yeah because we frogs not horses.
