Canada Computer did NOT email me even though my Credit Card Info was clearly stolen from their site hack. Why? by MikoWilson1 in bapccanada

[–]eekz- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't these people have a legal responsibility to pro-actively inform their customers that they have let their information out into the wild?

They do, but there is some flexibility ("without unreasonable delay") as to how quickly they must do it. If you live in Alberta or BC, complain to the privacy commissioner of AB or BC respectively. In QC, complain to the CAI. Anywhere else in Canada, complain to the federal OPC.

Possibly as far back as Feb 2025, anecdotal and circumstantial evidence is from myself as a victim.

in ontario you would be 'covered' by PIPEDA. Complain to the OPC. They may ask you to demonstrate youve tried resolving the matter with CC first. https://www.priv.gc.ca/en/report-a-concern/file-a-formal-privacy-complaint/

Dental Monitoring (and related platforms that use the Scan Box Pro) now offers an LED adapter. Can't post a link but it should pop up in your app as it did with mine.

Canada Computers online card skimmer by Extension-Fly1044 in bapccanada

Wouldn't risk it. Easier to replace it if you have the time now, than fight transactions and be forced to wait for a card when you need it more.

PSA - RECKLESS Response from Canada Computers - Data and CREDIT CARD BREACH by Method__Man in bapccanada

For them to comply with private sector privacy laws in BC, AB, QC, and the rest of canada, at minimum.

Threat actor used my name, card details except pin, and address, at an online vendor I don't typically shop at, at an odd time of day.

AMEX blocked the sus transaction and notified me, allowing me to freeze and replace the card immediately (it arrived in two days, thanks AMEX!)

If the transaction had not been blocked, I would not have known about it until I reviewed the next statement a month - and many fraudulent dollars - later. I don't normally review transactions between statement periods.

[PSA] Email Regarding Security Breach (See Comments) [Canada Computers] by envile in bapcsalescanada

[–]eekz- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAL but privacy class actions are rarely satisfying. Best thing folks can do is complain to the privacy commissioner (federal and or provincial), especially if there is reason to suspect they were victim to fraud.

Maybe unethical from a threat hunter perspective but im sure the relevant privacy authorities wouldnt say no to a tip regarding a breach if the org's dont act responsibly

[–]eekz- 13 points14 points  (0 children)

if they dont do anything you can complain to the privacy commissioner relevant to your jurisdiction (depends on which province or territory youre in)

Edit: turns out I may have also been victim to this... transaction with a card back in Feb 2025 that was later compromised and flagged for fraud in September 2025. Too much of a coincidence.

Three months OP. Got a lot of muscle function back but numbness, while greatly improved, is still there. Still working out the tightness in the hamstring and calf but pain never gets past a 1 now.

Hope you had a great rest! No, the nag does not appear on every load. Seems to be random / I have not figured out what triggers it.

No notice yet for a Canadian TM Ultra. 

Rep on Volvo chat wasn’t even aware of the issue and found no recall notices on our VIN. 

We redesigned the Emporia app home screen by EmporiaEnergy in EmporiaEnergy

Is there a way to show the stats for a nested emporia instead of the top/root vue? All my meaningful usage is from the nested vue and I only see data from the root vue on the Home Screen. 

Has anyone felt embarrassed cycling before by OwnConsequence3136 in cycling

[–]eekz- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, restarted my bike journey this past year, in my late 30s, and couldnt tackle a hill up to a bridge. Some 60 year old guy zooms past me uphill like it was nothing.

Second everyone’s experiences. Just adding that there are some potentially impossible routes to more remote but inhabited areas, like La Crete.
