>From the article:

  The information in the document is limited and does not immediately 
  expose those listed to fraud, the company said in its apology. Yet it 
  recommends that people affected review their bills more carefully and 
  add a password to their account by calling 1-866-861-5096.

Great.. they give you a number to a sales office and it isn't 
monitored 24/7 either. Most credit card companies have a 24/7 response for 
fraud related issues, but Verizon doesn't? Glad to see they really treat 
this seriously.
