So... 200,000 or so Citigroup customers have had their person info
stolen.  Someone logged in to one account properly, then changed the
account number in the URL to someone else, and the site happily served
up that account instead.  I hesitate to even call the first party an
"attacker".  Is it really an attack if the bank just leaves a pile of
money sitting on the sidewalk and someone takes it?

  Some banker fat cats need to go to jail for this.  This is
incompetence of the highest order.
