Who oders from Victoria Secret online?

This is a little disturbing!

Victoria’s Secret customers exposed

Once an appropriate customer number was discovered, a voyeur apparently could view all orders placed by the customer recently. Each order record showed what was purchased, including color and size, price, and the customer’s name and address. Other private information, such as credit card numbers, couldn’t be viewed, however — anyone attempting to view those were confronted with a user name and password request.

One of the problems with online privacy and purchasing information gathering.

I ordered from them just about two weeks ago, online.

So, if someone knew my name they could view my order, or would they have to know my order number?

Very disturbing either way.

Here's what they say about that...

"The glitch only allowed an Internet voyeur to pull up random orders; there was no way to search by individual name or geographical region."

But yes...still very disturbing. Especially since they could get your address from it.

They could also just sit outside the store and see you coming out with a bag in your hand, no? If someone is determined enough (espically for something so random), you could be found in r/l as well as on-line.
