I agree completely.  In particular, 
http://www.emergentchaos.com/archives/002310.html makes me think that something
has been amiss for a while, and has reached a point where the bank felt
it needed to "proactively" cancel cards rather than reactively do so (as they
seem to have been despite the unusually high amount of debit card fraud).

I hope the reporter for the Seattle P-I who wrote the article Adam cites in
the blog entry above is digging into this.
