Bay Area Bioscience Association (BayBio) notifies online customers of breach
Dear BayBio Customer,
It has come to our attention that sometime within the past two weeks
the security of our online payment system was breached. We believe an
intruder inserted files that captured the keystrokes of our visitors
and may have captured credit card numbers in the process.
You are receiving this because you have made a transaction at
BayBio.org’s checkout page to pay for an event or membership. Please
review your credit card statement and immediately alert your bank if you
see any unusual transactions or unfamiliar vendor names.
We are taking these matters seriously and are working to resolve this
security issue as quickly as we can and to install tightened security
measures to ensure this doesn’t happen again. We will advise you when
we’ve completed these actions and have restored the security of our
online payment system.
For the present time, enrollment in events and membership renewals
can be accomplished through www.baybio.org without providing credit card
information. Payments will be processed by phone until our web page
security problem is fixed.
Your online security while using the BayBio site is of the utmost
concern to us. We regret any inconvenience this problem may have caused
you. We truly appreciate your participation in the BayBio community.
Regards,
Gail Maderis
