CC numbers may interest me if I knew what they were?

As Suzanne says, PW crackers are a waste of money/time. And the better the
password you use (such as a totally random 12-character password) , the
longer the crackers take to work because they use brute force - perhaps
months before it finds the key.

Hypnosis would be far better value
