You'd think a CFO of a publicly-held company would know better.
He might end up in jail for his stupid greed.

Argentina (Univ. of Buenos Aires '85).

My guess is that he has contacts with the current right-wing administration there, which has become infamous for using electronic eavesdropping on opponents, journalists, allies, and even Lionel Messi.

Is that related to this data breach? We'll probably never know.

don't sell off that much stock (all three!) without knowing there's a payoff. Throw the book at 'em!

Want to freeze your credit so no one can open a credit card., rent a house, etc in your name? That will be $10 Please. Another $10 for your spouse. Same deal with the other two credit agencies. If all 150 million of us ponied up $10 each, that's $1.5 BILLION to Equifax alone.

Not a bad return on "accidentally" getting hacked, eh?

PS, I called to see if I could get that fee waived. Nope.
