Payback time: FTC Chair's Credit Card Info StolenSan Francisco Chronicle, AP News Thursday 30 June 2005, 7:17 pmKeywords: Computer Topics , News Articles

The spokeswoman declined further comment. The theft was first reported by Newsweek. Majoras' credit card number was among 1.4 million that were stolen from a company database.
