Barnes & Noble is warning that it has been hacked, potentially exposing personal data for shoppers. Customers’ lists of book purchases along with email addresses and more could have been exposed during a (ransomware?) attack. The potential trove includes personally identifiable information tied to the bookseller s ecommerce activities, including email addresses, billing and shipping addresses, and telephone numbers; as well as transaction and purchase histories. The company hasn t yet confirmed that, but the systems that were hit contained personal data, so it may have been.
