ATTENTION: Boston College Alumni - College Computers Hacked!

By Possible Identity Theft (Russian) Criminals!:argh:

My Mother, a B.C. Graduate from the 1957, Just told me, she got a letter from the B.C. Alumni office regarding passable Identity Theft, due to hackers breaking into the computers at the Alumni Office. My Cousin who graduated in the 1980's, also got a letter.

If you haven't received a letter about this, you may not be effected, but you might want to start looking into the steps to take regarding identity theft.

She also told me that she saw something about this on the NBC Evening News which said B.C. was one of FOUR Colleges and Universities affected. :hurts:

I posted this here, because B.C. Grads (like Notre Dame Grads), tend not to cluster only in Massachusetts.
