The official Panasonic online store sends the password in clear and in a copy to 3 recipients.

At work came affiliate promo code for a discount. Registered on Panasonic eplaza (the official online store "Panasonic" on their domain).

The password in the letter came in clear view and a hidden copy (which not every client will show) to the following people: Alexey Bratushka (seomasterweb@gmail.com), Olga Paneetova (Olga.Panaetova@ru.panasonic.com) and Vadim Vihrov (vadim.vikhrov @ ru.panasonic.com). Why do these people need passwords: a question to the security service. And the use cases with the right hands are a bunch: a targeted address database + a login with a password that allows you to parse personal accounts and purchase history. Dictionary database passwords. Take it and send it.

At the same time, when registering, they collect data about the date of birth, income, etc. - even now go to the bank if someone faithfully fills in. Partners are asked to specify the mail of the corporate: many in the online store can specify the same password as in the work mail (ordinary users will, of course, indicate their regular mail).

Be careful.



Update: great, just great. Want to change your password? You will receive a letter to the box with the status of changing the password, a copy of the same 3 people and, attention, a link at the end, according to which you can change the password again (“sarcasm” tag: to help SEO, not otherwise, since the password is not changed when changing) ).
