TD Ameritrade follows www.monster.com ‘s footsteps. About 6.3 million customer records were hacked, although TD Ameritrade states that the records did not contain social security numbers and account numbers. No other details around the incident were disclosed.
As a result of this customer have started receiving phishing emails, which could lead to identity theft.
In my opinion TD Ameritrade should send the customers a Internet security 101 course to protect them from identity theft and impending law suits.
