TargetDataBreach.com was created to provide complete information on the holiday credit card breach suffered by 40 million Target customers.
Online, December 22, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Definitely the last thing any buying individual will want to hear about is an incident of financial breach or fraud. For the 40 million debit and credit account holders who were exposed to this problem at Target, it is important to know every update relating to their unfortunate shopping experience - and that there is a way out.
Target shoppers between November 27th and December 15th have every reason to worry about. Officially labeling the incident "unauthorized access to payment card data", shop officials are claiming the issue has been resolved, but the threat remains, prompting customers to react with "fury and frustration".
TargetDataBreach.com offers real information about the unfortunate large-scale financial breach involving customers who visited any of the 1,797 shops in many parts of the United States and paid using their credit or debit cards. It is the one-stop online destination for anyone seeking news and updates from various sources, which have been collected and pooled together for easier access.
TargetDataBreach.com also revisits the many other stores or companies, aside from Target, that suffered from data breach problems. The website runs a full story TJX Cos., which exposed at least 45.7 million credit and debit cards to possible fraud in July 2005. Other data breach issues that hounded payment processing company Heartland in 2009, and even the U.S. military base in the Middle East in 2008 are also featured on the website.
Exposed customers are encouraged to take action to prevent any damage from messing up their financial identities. The attackers behind the breach are likely to use the information to steal identity and splurge using the debit or credit cards at the expense of the poor victims.
