Dear James,
You may have seen in the news or received emails today from other online companies informing you that Epsilon, our email marketing service provider, had consumer files accessed without authorization.
While Epsilon has assured us and their other affected clients that only first name and email address were exposed, we wanted to call this matter to your attention and remind you of a few best practices for online security to protect your personal information:
* Don't send financial or personal information via email. Email is not a secure way to send this information and reputable companies will not ask for your personal information via email. Eurosport/SOCCER.COM will never ask you to provide or confirm any information, including credit card numbers, unless you are on our secure e-commerce site, www.soccer.com.
* Use caution when opening links or attachments from unknown third parties. Sometimes spammers send emails that look like they come from a reputable company (known as phishing) and these emails can contain spyware.
* Use or install anti-virus software on your computer. If you have anti-virus software installed, it can warn you not to accept the spyware and detect and delete any spyware present.
The security of your information is extremely important to us, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
As always, if you have any questions, or need any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact us at 1-800-950-1994 or custserv@sportsendeavors.com.
Sincerely,
Mike and Brendan Moylan
Co-Founders
