How To Find Out If You May Be A Victim Of Staples Data Hack
By Connor Adams Sheets -
With the news Friday that Staples Inc. had suffered a major data breach that could have compromised millions of credit cards, consumers across the nation will be checking their transaction histories and receipts to find out whether or not their personal data may be at risk. The big office supply retail store chain said in a statement posted on its website Friday that “criminals” deployed malware in the point-of-sale systems of 115 of its 1,400 U.S. stores in August and September.
The Framingham, Massachusetts-based company has compiled an organized, easy-to-search list of the store locations that were affected by the hack, as well as the dates when the breach took place, which you can access via this link. The breakdown of locations and dates has also been pasted at the end of this article.
Staples is offering a range of free identity protection services to anyone who used a credit card at the affected stores during the time periods when they were impacted. Detailed information about the hack and the free services the company is providing to consumers who may have had their information compromised -- which include identity theft protection, credit monitoring and free credit reports -- can be found here.
Staples said about 1.16 million credit cards may have been compromised via the breach. The hackers may have obtained important information, including names of cardholders and their card numbers, verification codes and expiration dates. The company said consumers should take steps to determine if they may have been victims of the hack, which is the latest in a series of major breaches at big-box retail chains including Home Depot and Target.
“Typically, customers are not responsible for any fraudulent charges on their credit cards that are reported in a timely fashion. Staples customers who shopped at the affected stores during the relevant time periods should review their account statements and notify their card issuers of any suspicious activity," the company said.
