Well, if we didn't believe Google could find anything before....

Ahem... I will get a new credit card next month. Maybe it's time to cease buying stuff over the Internet (always gaming stuff)?

How does one find out if your information has been compromised?

I don't think mine has, since I obsessively check my credit card online every day or two.

Still, doesn't hurt to check. After all, I check my credit reports a couple times a year, too.

you have an easier time of checking to see if yours is posted than you have of finding new ones

Simply type your number into google and see if it turns anything up.

Okay, checked my three credit cards, and nothing turned up. Whew!

What, exactly, does this have to do with Google? All above-average search engines will find pretty much everything referred to on the Internet, even *ghasp* pornography! Seems to me someone is trying to hurt GOOG sales.
