Dell Computers Has Been Hacked
I don&#x27;t know if it&#x27;s related but I found something deeply worrying a couple of months ago. I purchased a laptop on Dell&#x27;s website at my home address using a personal email and my personal paypal account. No reference anywhere to my job or employer. A couple of weeks later I receive a call from India on the mobile number provided to Dell, from a guy pretending to be from Dell (and he might have been) who wanted to discuss how he could do business with my employer which he mentioned by name (a large corporation).<p>At that time I thought that Dell&#x27;s commercials were unacceptably pushy, googling their private clients to find a way in their employer. It didn&#x27;t occur to me that this might have been a scam using Dell&#x27;s database.
