Ah, thanks for the calrification on the rules! I will read them more closely next time! I did not see the Krebs security post. Yes it is quite possible that parts of the original Krebs post were deleted or that my source is merely speculating and I indicated that in my OP.
I found the reference on ADX and it does make sense in a way as a security breach would sure as Hell be a "program deficiency"! A security breach would also go a long way towards explaining the otherwise inexplicable moves of funds from wallets to Visa ATM cards, which is exactly what several users have complained about on this very board. If the system were hacked and the hackers had the Visa/ATM info, they could easily clone the cards, move funds from the wallet and then strip them using the card.
ePassporte, VISA and the bank would all three be loathe to admit that their systems had been breached.
Just a scenario which may well have some validity or may be complete bullshit but is nevertheless, worthy of consideration..
