Dear Friends and Colleagues 1. To get the "Naughty Bank Manager" personally - one must be a customer of the bank - this is how it was addressed. 2. What puzzles me is that none in the list have said a word about the fact that the list of users or even these who have just asked to be users of Lloyds TSB Internet \ WEB services was compromised by the mystery hacker. 3. I have NEWWS for the Group: I am a customer of Lloyds TSB and was honoured to get this message and visit the site. I have also written to the WEBMASTER and Customer Service e-mail address and to my Bank Branch Manager by FAX - and ... =========Surprise ++++++++++++++ NOTHING HAS HAPPENED - NOT A PIPS from the Bank ... well at least an unlearned apology about the "mission impossible" to protect the Internet Services so gallantly offered by this bank. ================================!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!++++++++++++++++++++++++ 4. So... I guess the Naughty Webmaster is write - Lloyds TSB just does not concern itself with its customers... nor with the quality of services on the WEB which are window dressing of the old Main Frame services... which where barely reasonable as an Information Processing System for a financial institution of the size of this bank. 5. So being well conversed with the Data Protection Act 1988 and its later offsprings and a member of the Israeli Privacy Protection Council (Ministry of Justice) - I intend to test the implementation of the EU Directive principles and UK Law and lodge a complaint with the UK Data Protection Commissionaire as advised by the naughty WEB manager who sent me the SPAM. I wonder how is enforcement of Data Protection Law implemented by the people in charge of it. I wonder if the Naughty guy has also twisted some bank accounts by compromising the User ID and Authorisation Controls of the Lloyds TSB Site.... (Or is the whole thing just about proving to the Bank Managers that their backdoors are wide open?) 6. Anyone has seen any mention of it in the Media? (Printed or Electronic).
