Yesterday was time to pay bills. For some reason, I couldn't connect to WellsFargo. I called my banker and they said they had no problem. Hmmn. My computer, I guess. Today I tried again using google for the search engine. As various WellsFargo options come up, this is what I find:
In a posting at Pastebin.com, a group calling itself the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Cyber Fighters claimed responsibility for last week’s outages at Bank of America, Citi, and JPMorgan before hitting Wells Fargo. It said it would attack U.S. Bancorp on Wednesday and PNC Financial Services Thursday.
The posting said the attacks would continue until a video insulting the Islamic prophet Muhammad was removed from the Internet. But computer security expert Dmitri Alperovitch, who has been investigating the attacks, said it could not be determined whether that was the actual motivation.
Not addressing political implications which is a no no here, has anyone else experienced this? I wonder how to make our banking life secure. Wonder if my "payees" will take that for an excuse for a late payment
