GlossyBox - June 2012

[shelley6301]

i signed up online on the day they announced they were taking subscriptions. no problems signing up, everything went smoothly, and was able to fill out the profile as well. i wasnt double charged for either month and had no problems at all. i was notified by my bank on wed the 20th that there were fraudulant charges by at least 6 uk based companies for online orders. the only one i remember was asos.com. each charge was around $150.

A lot of breaches happen because companies aren't careful with other areas they deem "low" security.  Attackers get into those systems and then "pivot" deeper into the company.  Or, attackers get into systems before a company has done things to secure them fully - similar to locking your house after the bad-guy is hiding in the attic.  Some places encrypt databases/personal info but leave the key to decrypt easy to find - which is like locking your door but taping the key to the door.

You also see back-up tapes with data (that isn't encrypted) stolen.  So - it could be lots of areas!

I didn't look very hard, but their website looks secure and had good certs and good certificates/ciphers in place.  And trust me, that is hard to do and lots of places don't have that even working right.  But that's just one piece... You're only as secure as your weakest link in IT security.

Great info!

Those who use prepaid CCs is there one in particular that you recommend. I noticed some have monthly fees. I would like to avoid that if possible.

Let's try to find a common denominator. Those having CC problems.

Did you sign up online or on the phone?

Did you have any problems signing up?

When it came time to charge for May and June's boxes were you one of the ones double and triple charged?

Anything else I'm missing? I wonder if it may be a computer security breach or a GB employee. On my GB profile my CC info isn't listed so I don't know if a hacker could get anything from it.

Signed up online.

Had absolutely no issues.

Was not double or triple charged.

Hey, first post here!

When heading to fill out a survey for Glossydots tonight I noticed that the surveys for the June samples are available!

Here's what it looks we'll be getting:

-Vbeaute (lite up, buying time, & Eye Never) * i'm assuming we'll get only one of these

-Wella Enrich Moisturizing Treatment

-Kinerase Restructure Firming Creme

-Beautyaddicts Show Off Mascara

-Ahava Hibiscus & Fig Velvet Cream Wash
Eh, I'm neither here nor there with this box. Though I haven't tried everything out yet, I think I prefer May's box.

That's what is listed under mine. Seems HIGHLY unlikely we are getting 9 items so I'm leaning towards computer glitch.

I'll take these 9 items! lol

 

[Jess Bailey]

the AHAVA fig & hibiscus is my favorite!!!!
and the rest of the items seem good, too.

would also like to add that i have the 9 items listed in my survey section.

 

[TheNittyPretty]

I wonder if the fraudulent charges and UK orders are how they're purchasing such nice items to put in a $21.00 box. Hmmm, steal the money to buy the stuff, then pocket the 21.00 from each box.

I have those 9 also!

 

[goldilocks1]

Actually I have all nine now as well. I think I jumped the gun without knowing it.

I think it's safe to say we'll all have those nine items listed there... haha

 

[TheNittyPretty]

I have all 9 of those items too! Seems like a pretty good box!

I have all 9 too. This seems WAY to good to be true!! lol

 

[TheNittyPretty]

I hope this product is a full size:

And I hope I get this color!!! 

 

[arendish]

I'm not going to get too excited until a see a picture of someone with a box with all nine of those things in it. It's wishful thinking, but more than anything it makes me think that not everyone is getting the same box this time around. I think they will have some boxes with one makeup item and some with the other, and the same with the creams. I imagine everyone will get perfume.

I agree!  But I'd be happy with 5 out of any that have shown up.  But I'll keep my fingers crossed for all 9.  

 

[MissLindaJean]

Nine items seems like an awful lot of stuff to receive. I didn't notice any international boxes posted with that much stuff.
