Looks like another person just got taken down in the identity theft ring that included TJX and several other retailers. Apparent he wrote a custom sniffer to grab payment card info off the wire as it went between cash registers and the processing servers.

Very interesting....I still will never use anything but cash at places like TJX after the article I read that even after the breach they still follow poor security practices
