Count me as someone who got directly affected by this. Some jackass opened a fraudulent PayPal Mastercard in my name last month and promptly maxed it out. I had no idea how they could have gotten my information as I'm fairly careful with it and I didn't know of anyone I did business with that had been hacked.
Now I find out a month later after the damage has been done that they almost certainly got my information from SC. They have all of my current data as I had to give it to them when I moved to my current address. No proof, of course, but the timeframe matches up perfectly.
Thanks, SC, for still screwing me over with crappy service even AFTER I leave.
