Police taskforce to target florist credit card fraudsters - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation): "A special police taskforce has been created to investigate a credit card scam which targeted customers of the online florist Roses Only. Strike Force Parkview is investigating allegations that hackers entered the 'Roses Only' database and stole customers' credit card details. There are unconfirmed reports that the credit card information has been used to make luxury purchases in south-east Asia. Roses Only says its online payments system was compromised earlier this year. The company is assuring its customers they are not liable for any unauthorised transactions and should contact their financial institution if they have any concerns. Roses Only says it regrets the inconvenience to its loyal customers and has engaged a leading international technology firm to enhance its online security system. New South Wales police say they are working closely with financial institutions to improve security in the wake of the allegations."
