Why do you think some hacker is targeting Goldin specifically? Also, is there concern that hackers' efforts is not limited to messing with an auction, but could extend to taking personal and private information of those who have registered with Goldin? If your service provider is unable to stop hackers from jacking with the auction, twice now, what comfort do we have that the same service provider is keeping personal information private?
I am not trying to be difficult - I like Goldin and bid regularly in their auctions (especially when you have vintage baseball cards), so this post is not intended to be "trouble making". Rather, I am genuinely concerned as to security in general and would appreciate some explanation that gives bidders and consignors comfort that their private info remains such, especially in light of back-to-back auction hacks.
Thank You
