Cloud Fail! Elance Sends Private Messages All Over The Place
by Acidus at 12:10 pm EDT, Aug 28, 2009

Second time this Summer we write about Elance, a service that allows for companies and individuals to hire and pay independent professionals and contractors online, and once again it’s not good news but another security issue. A registered user of the service, Salma Jafri, tells us she has been receiving dozens of private messages that were erroneously sent to her account, on occasion even containing confidential information and sensitive data such as login details for Elance accounts and third-party servers.

Wow. Fail.
