This was sent to a girl I know that has a capitol one account. She says it is different from what you see in the news.

Dear Capital One Customer,
As we have communicated over the course of the last week, Epsilon—a marketing vendor that sends e-mails on our behalf—notified us about unauthorized outside access to files that included Capital One® customer e-mail addresses.
The information obtained was limited to the e-mail address of some customers. No account information or other information was compromised. We’ll continue to provide updates when we have important new information to share. And, we’ll let you know what impact, if any, these developments will have on you.
Protecting our customers’ information is always a top priority for Capital One. We’re working with Epsilon and law enforcement, and we’re thoroughly investigating this incident to help prevent future ones like it. Epsilon is also conducting its own comprehensive investigation in cooperation with the appropriate authorities.
It’s always a good idea to ignore any e-mail that requests your confidential account or login information. And don’t forget, if you get an e-mail you think is suspicious, don’t click any of the links. Just send it to us at abuse@capitalone.com. Then delete it.
We apologize for any inconvenience this unfortunate incident has caused and appreciate your patience. For more information, please visit our Web site at www.capitalone.com.
Sincerely,
Capital One
