Not clear if they have CC #'s or not, but those won't be posted publicly anyway (my TF account does not have a saved CC, though they may have transaction data….).  They are worth too much money to simply give away.
anyone notice the logo on the top of the page has changed slightly (way smaller 930 logo)
and the link goes to https://eventbritesites.com/tf/930club ; and if you go to www.930.com it redirects you to the eventbritesites

Edit…almost all the links at the top redirect to that site (except Merch and blog (which goes to tmlbr))

can't go to tickefly directly!
…but clicked a link on the facebook page for tickets and go to an 'artist presale' 930 themed page (for the batfangs show tonight)
I'm very surprised the situation didn't hit the POST til today.    Anyone know if it got to any high-profile legit mainstream media by the end of the weekend?

The Post is too busy obsessing over everything 45 does to focus on actual news.

summary: all is back to normal, but expect hiccups in the near term as we implement new security measures.

Why, on Earth would you ever store credit card numbers in a website, just to make it easier. Get off your lazy ass and type in the numbers every time.


I don't give a shit if my credit card number gets stolen. No skin off my back.
Ticketmaster Global Hacked (ie, not North America)

https://gizmodo.com/ticketmaster-discloses-breach-that-impacts-nearly-5-per-1827185787

Ticketmaster on Wednesday disclosed a data breach reportedly caused by malware infecting a customer support system outsourced to an external company.

In a statement, Ticketmaster said some of its customer data may have been accessed by an unknown intruder. Email notifications were sent to customers who purchased tickets between February and June 23, 2018, the company said.

Names, addresses, email addresses, telephone numbers, and payment card details may have been compromised.

….

Despite an apparent ongoing investigation, the company claimed Wednesday that less than 5 percent of its global customer base was affected. “Customers in North America have not been affected,” the company said.
Looks like the name of this thread needs to be changed.

I was fully prepared to start a new thread for this until I saw that it did not impact North American accounts, then it was NBD….
maybe we need a "we are all hacked" thread

New breach might have exposed data of almost every US adult

While the database apparently does not include credit-card numbers or Social Security numbers, it does include phone numbers, email and postal addresses as well as more than 400 personal characteristics, such as whether a person is a smoker, if they own a dog or cat, their religion and a multitude of personal interests. Even though no financial information was included, the breadth of personal data could make it possible to profile individuals or help scammers steal identities.

If confirmed, the data leak would be one of the largest in history, and far bigger than the Equifax data breach last year that exposed the personal information of about 148 million consumers.

As a result of this cyber attack, some venues switched to other ticketing vendors….

Metro Gallery - Etix
Baltimore Soundstage - Ticketmaster
Boot and Saddle - Etix
Union Transfer - Etix

I wonder if timing of their contracts with Fly ending coincidentally or if they had penalties to get out of an ongoing contract or if Fly just gave in without a fight
