I got some free computer equipment from a 'skip' hire firm (as I know the owner  ;) ) and that had all the connection details on that.

RE : The VPN kit

Obviously someone got their hands on something that wasnt theirs to sell  :no:

Red: Bank customer data sold on eBay

That is downright negligence on the part of RBS and Nat West. How the hell can they let information like that loose Ive no idea.
quote "RBS and Natwest said they were taking the issue very seriously and were working to resolve it "as a matter of urgency".

I damn well hope they are - its pretty damn serious and someone needs their arse kicking big time over that.
