Finally got my email yesterday from Baileys telling me the breach now goes as far back as Dec. 2011. That's four years and they were clueless.

When was the first credit or debit card information from Bailey's hack or inside job first used in a fraudulent manner? I had used two cards with them and the fraudulent activity was within two weeks of each other for the various cards. I did not get an email lately but the one I got on 2/1/2016 seemed not to be correct with their date window just looking at the one card I only used four times. Kind of unlikely the hack or whatever compromise came from elsewhere.
It is not chainsaw related the way I see it. Could have started with the email, remember when you were supposed to be able to put remove in the subject line or reply and the spam had to stop sending you stuff. That was not enforced. Buy anti virus not pay taxes to prosecute those who inflict harm. Use tax money to prosecute Microsoft for stuff Necscape could get 3x damages if there was a case there. Etc. It seemed from the discussion when I signed the paper to dispute the charges either the bank or the entity that accpeted the card takes the hit. They gave me a provisional credit, will tell me for sure in 90 days.

I had my credi card info hacked from their site as well 
And I didn't even get a sales flyer with my order either
And I didn't even get a sales flyer with my order either Just don't set well at all and worst is I recently made a purchase from them in February this year and the very next day I started getting charge out of Hawaii against my card. This purchase was supposedly after the time they had fix the problem. A lot more charges probably would had made it through before I caught them if weren't for a self imposed limit. It was when another vendor call about my card not going through. After calling my credit union and finding that my card was suspended and three additional charges were stop I locked that card and requested a replacement.
I definitely will very very leery of making any further purchases from Bailey's in the future.

Why am I not surprised? I was brushed off when I suggested that the breach was larger than first thought. Hmmm.
Get them from Gregg and the guys here (site sponsors) at Left Coast Supplies.
Best prices out there that I have found.

I got bit more than once. Will give them some time to get their stuff organized and will probably shop with them again. Just part of shopping online. Still a lot easier than trying to find stuff locally or at multiple vendors.
Hope this doesn't ruin their business.
I do think they should move out of CA though.
