The letter indicated if money was not paid millions of member’s records would be posted on the internet. The FBI has been involved since the letter was received and an investigation is ongoing into the matter.
Notification letters have been sent to those affected in late September 2009. The company is offering fraud protection through Kroll. A website is available to answer questions at www.esisupports.com.
