An AOL member found the wrong portfolio when he looked at his, was able to determine the other user screenname.
Can you say class action lawsuit?

This is one of the reasons I am very careful about anything I do online finacialy.
The only online banking is a very small household account.
I also never bring up my portfolio online even though my broker has been after me to keep track of things this way [I guess instead of calling him every day:) ]
I have always thought that this online stuff was voodoo and magic:D :D :D [j/k]
