Michaels breach exposes nearly 3M payment cards

Michaels says 2.6 million payment cards at Michaels Stores and another 400,000 at subsidiary Aaron Brothers may have been affected in a card skimming attack that compromised its point-of-sale systems. The arts and crafts supplier in Irving, Texas, said in January it was investigating a possible data security attack after it learned of suspicious activity on some U.S. payment cards that had been used at its stores. Information including names, mailing addresses, phone numbers or email addresses of an additional 70 million individuals was also likely to have been compromised.”]
