The-Ozone Announcement: The Buckeye Corner has requested that we make the following announcment.

"We, at The Buckeye Corner, have been made aware of some customers who have seen fraudulent charges on their credit cards after making purchases from our website.

"Since becoming aware of the situation we have been working very closely with our IT consultants, an outside internet security firm and police authorities to determine if our site has been compromised.

"It is the recommendation of the police that any customer, who feels they may have an issue related to purchases made on our website, please contact their issuing bank as well as the local authorities. Any issues or concerns, please feel free to contact us at [email protected] or 1-800-525-5630.

"Several other merchants have had similar issues which appear to come from professional thieves. This is an area of concern for all retailers as well as our own state government who experienced a similar incident last week.

"We value our customers and their privacy and are working diligently to protect both."​

I got about $150 of fraudulent charges removed from my account earlier today, then got my bank statement in the mail and I need to get about another $250 taken off tomorrow. Like I said, some people are scum.

Bummer thing is that these people are very rarely caught.
