Tuesday, April 5, 2011 – Daily News – 5A WORLD BRIEFING NTSB: Cracks found in 3 other planes PHOENIX (AP) — Three more Southwest Air- lines jetliners have small, subsurface cracks that are similar to the ones suspect- ed in the fuselage tear on another of its planes. Feder- al aviation officials are con- sidering an order for other airlines to inspect their air- craft. Boeing said Monday that it will issue guidance this week on how airlines should do checks on the affected airplanes now in service. The 5-foot-long hole tore open Friday in the pas- senger cabin roof shortly after the Southwest plane carrying 118 people left Phoenix for Sacramento, Calif. It made a rapid descent, landing at a mili- tary base in Yuma, 150 miles southwest of Phoenix. No one was seri- ously hurt. Since then, Southwest grounded 79 other Boeing 737-300s and began inspecting them. The grounding caused about 600 flight cancellations over the weekend and another 70 on Monday. Nineteen inspected aircraft showed no problems and will be returned to service. Checks on the remain- ing jets are expected to be completed by late Tuesday, the airline said. Hackers may have obtained email addresses NEW YORK (AP) — With the possible theft of millions of email addresses from an advertising compa- ny, several large companies have started warning cus- tomers to expect fraudulent emails that try to coax account login information from them. Companies behind such brands as Chase, Citi and Best Buy said over the weekend that hackers may have learned their email addresses because of a security breach at a Dallas- based company called Epsilon that manages email communications. The email addresses could be used to target spam. It’s also a standard tactic among online fraud- sters to send emails to ran- dom people, purporting to be from a large bank and asking them to login in at a site that looks like the bank’s site. Instead, the fraudulent site captures their login information and uses it to access the real account. The data breach could make these so-called ‘‘phishing’’ attacks more efficient, by allowing the fraudsters to target people who actually have an account with the bank. David Jevans, chairman and founder of the non- profit Anti-Phishing Work- ing Group, said criminals have been moving away from indiscriminate phish- ing toward more intelligent attacks known as ‘‘spear phishing,’’ which rely on having more intimate knowledge of the victims.
