Late last week it was learned that some 40 million charge cards were obtained using physical processing systems located in Target retail locations nationwide.
What this attack highlights is that with the right type of “event”(THE EVENT) the economy and financial system of the United States can be shut down… almost instantly.
If you are a JP Morgan Chase banking customer and happened to use your debit card at Target stores between November 27th and December 15th, then you got a first-hand taste of what a shutdown of the banking system might feel like and how fast in can happen.
It was done with the push of a button and impacted some two million holiday shoppers:
JPMorgan Chase has notified card holders impacted by the Target breach that their cards will be restricted to $100 ATM cash withdrawals and $300 card purchases until replacement cards can be issued. The new limits impact nearly 2 million debit card accounts, but not credit card holders.Because cyber space is now considered a national asset, the President of the United States has the authority to completely shut down the internet http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/kill-switch-president-can-shut-down-internet-for-4-months_06262010 (and all of the components attached to it) with what experts call a “kill switch.” If this executive action is ever implemented the President would need very little justification to shut it all down – the financial system, commerce systems, and all personal web surfing – for a period of up to four months, and then indefinitely if he can provide a justifiable reason to Congress.
Former Department of Homeland Security head Janet Napolitano recently said that a massive and serious attack http://www.thedailysheeple.com/big-sis-says-cyber-attack-will-bring-down-power-grid-when-not-if_082013on the homeland is imminent. It makes no difference why it happens.(THE EVENT)
UPDATE
6/1/14
If banks warn account holders on a Friday that they will not have access to their funds until the following Monday...this is a RED FLAG for a pending implementation of Martial Law, or "Emergency Police Powers". The term "martial law" will not be used.
