After discovering a credit card skimmer, Costco admits a data breach.

Customers who recently made purchases at one of Costco Wholesale Corporation’s stores have received notification letters informing them that their credit card information may have been stolen.

According to Fortune 500 rankings, the retail giant—also known as Costco Wholesale and Costco—is an American multinational that runs a sizable chain of membership-only retail locations. It is the fifth-largest retailer in the world and the tenth-largest firm in the US by total revenue.

It runs e-commerce websites with 737 warehouses across the world that cater to the Americas, Europe, and Asia, among other global regions.

During a regular check by Costco staff, a credit card skimming device was found in one of the company’s warehouses, leading to the discovery of the breach.

The business got rid of the gadget, let the authorities know, and is now assisting the police in their investigation.

In breach notification letters, Costco informed possibly impacted customers that they had recently visited a Costco facility where a payment card skimming device had been found.

“Our member records show that throughout the possible operational period of the device, you swiped your payment card to make a purchase at the impacted terminal.”

probable theft of customer financial information
Costco said that if those who placed the card theft device had been successful in accessing the data prior to the skimmer being discovered and taken out, then consumers affected by the incident may have had their payment information stolen.

The magnetic stripe of your credit card, which contains your name, card number, card expiration date, and CVV, may have been obtained by unauthorised individuals if they were able to remove information from the device before it was identified, according to Costco.

Customers were given advice by the retailer to check their bank and credit card statements for fraudulent payments and alert the appropriate financial institutions to any suspect activities.

The total number of customers who were impacted or the warehouse where the skimmer device was discovered were not disclosed in the data breach notification letters sent to affected consumers.

Although the business withheld details on the incident’s exact timing, Costco customers have been complaining about fraudulent charges on their credit cards at least since February.

T-Mobile data leak revealed call logs and phone numbers

T-Mobile data leak revealed call logs and phone numbers

T-Mobile has disclosed a data breach that exposed customer proprietary network information (CPNI), which includes phone numbers and call history.

T-Mobile started texting consumers about a “security incident” that revealed the details of their accounts yesterday.

T-Mobile claims that recently, their systems had “malicious, unauthorised access” uncovered by their security staff. T-Mobile hired a cybersecurity company to conduct an investigation, and the results showed that threat actors had gotten access to CPNI, or customer-generated network information, used for telecommunications.

Phone numbers, call history, and the number of lines on an account are among the data compromised in this attack.

“The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations’ definition of customer proprietary network information (CPNI) was accessed. The CPNI that was accessed might have included your phone number, the number of lines you have subscribed to, and, in some cases, call-related data gathered as part of your wireless service’s routine operation “T-Mobile claimed in a notification of a data breach.

According to T-Mobile, the compromised data did not include the names, addresses, email addresses, financial information, credit card information, social security numbers, tax IDs, passwords, or PINs of account holders.

T-Mobile claimed that this hack only affected a “small number of consumers (less than 0.2%)” in a statement to BleepingComputer. There are roughly 200,000 persons who have been impacted by this breach out of T-estimated Mobile’s 100 million customers.

“Less than 0.2% of our clients are now receiving notifications that some account information may have been improperly accessed. Names connected to the account, financial information, credit card details, social security numbers, passwords, PINs, and physical or email addresses were NOT among the data obtained. Phone numbers, the number of lines a user subscribes to, and, in a few rare situations, call-related data gathered as part of routine operation and service, were among the data that may have been accessed “Tells BleepingComputer, T-Mobile.

Anyone who has received a text alert about this incident should be on the watch for any suspicious texts that seem to be from T-Mobile and ask for information or contain links to websites that are not owned by T-Mobile.

Threat actors frequently employ information they have obtained from other targeted phishing and smishing efforts in an effort to obtain sensitive data such login names and passwords.

Prior data breaches at T-Mobile occurred in 2018, 2019 for prepaid customers, and in March 2020, which exposed personal and financial information.
