Warning for Shoppers at Winners and HomeSense
Josh Pringle Thursday, January 18, 2007
Canadians who shop at Winners and HomeSense are being urged to carefully scrutinize their credit card statements.
The parent company says hackers broke into the computer system that handles credit and debit card transactions for the stores, as well as cheques and merchandise returns for customers in Canada, the US and elsewhere.
T-J-X says customer information was stolen and an investigation is underway to determine the full extent of the intrusion.
The break-in was discovered at the peak of the busy shopping season in December.
