I'm pretty sure they're sending them out to everyone just to notify them about the breach. But I think it takes a while to send out several millions of e-mails.Grinchy said:

It has to do with where you live probably. Countries/States where there is law to reveal that info quicker will get their emails prioritized. There are already custom paragraphs for people in different states for example. There has to be a translation done for different languages etc. Probably have to put things in there for certain areas that you don't have to put for others (legally and who to contact for fraud reporting).
I think everyone is getting an email.

I thought my PSN account had the same password as my amazon account (turns out it doesn't, thank God) so I changed my amazon password. But now, my amazon account accepts both my new and old passwords, and even accepts slight variations of my old password. Basically, the amazon account password system is broken. Trust no one!

Hmmm. I hadn't heard about that. Changing it just seems to have made it worse for me though.

On a semi-related note (has to do with cyber attacks).
4Chan isn't functional at the moment, posts are up, but no one CAN post.

Most likely coincidental. Skimmers are everywhere these days.
That, or people are freaking out over charges they don't remember/under a different name. The parking service at my University actually bills it out of Ontario instead of here in Edmonton.
I talked to my bank ages ago about how Visa security works. Basically, they have ways of detecting when a card is likely compromised. Things such as: multiple low-dollar purchases in another city, single large dollar items, patterns of purchase, etc. When that happens, the system usually puts a hold on the transaction and gives the cardholder a call if possible.
For example, one of my mom's transactions was put on hold because she tried to purchase a $2000+ range on it. I was actually sleeping when the CC company called the house, while my mom called me on my cell about two minutes later.
Don't worry, the algorithms on a CC card are usually much better us checking the balance. It's usually better to get your card flagged and then get it replaced that way (or switch numbers) instead of pre-emptively canceling since that will lower your credit rating. Your cardholders agreement will protect you.

Lightly drop the PS3 into a can that has trash placed well enough to soften it's fall.
Sounds like he's getting rid of his PS3.
