Xerox glitch with EBT cards causes free for all, and shutdown of the cards

Actually Xerox had a little hiccup over the weekend for the 17 states it manages food stamp cards for, well the EBT cards that is.

Oh and why was it offline?  Well apparently there was a glitch and folks where getting “unlimited” cash and going on shopping sprees (such as this onehttp://www.cbsnews.com/8301-201_162-57607332/ebt-benefit-card-glitch-sparks-walmart-shopping-sprees-in-louisiana/ ).

I wonder who has to pay for that mess-up.  Oh another good article on it here http://www.naturalnews.com/042479_EBT_cards_Walmart_looting.html#
