Default Terror Group Cloned Cellphones of Rogers Customers & Executives

http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20051217/rogers_cellphones_cloning_051217/20051217?hub=CTVNewsAt11

"A group linked to terrorist organization Hezbollah has cloned the cellphones of Rogers Communications executives, including that of CEO Ted Rogers, The Globe and Mail reported Saturday. Cloning involves duplicating a cellphone's number and encrypted security code. The story came to light after law professor Susan Drummond returned from a month-long trip abroad, only to find her Rogers cellphone bill was more than $12,000"

Great job Rogers! It's nice to know that there are only a couple major carriers in Canada, and the largest one does nothing to stop terrorist from taking advantage of their network but still demands the customer pay the bill. :roll: To be fair, Rogers has since changed their tune after Susan Drummond - a law professor, took her case public. They have taken care of her bill, and she got a personal apology from Ted Rogers himself. However, we still don't know if they have stepped up their security in an attempt to prevent any future occurrences. :?
