Credit card fraud-Egghead.com

[Mary Ludwick <ludwick@swbell.net>]

If you have purchased anything from http://www.egghead.com
please read the following.  If not, delete message now.
This is from my credit union:
We have been notified by
both VISA  International and MasterCard International that the website
Egghead.com had a breach of its security firewall and many people who
have purchased
items through Egghead.com had their credit card numbers, plus all
security
info on the credit cards....expiration dates etc. stolen.  So far we
have been
able  to cancel many credit cards and re-issue cards before some of our
accountholders had any fraudulent purchases.  If you purchase over
the  internet....be very careful about the ability of the credit card
numbers
to  be inadvertently stolen.  If you have purchased something from
Egghead.com I  would advise you to immediately call your credit card
issuer, have
your account transferred to a new number to ensure you do not end up
with fraudulent transactions and then have the nightmare to go through
to
get rid of the fraudulent charges from your card.
