Neiman Marcus breach hits 19,000 Bay Staters

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 29 Januari 2014 | 12.33

The credit and debit card information of more than 19,000 Massachusetts residents was among the data accessed by hackers who breached Neiman Marcus Group's point-of-sales system.

The number likely is greater because the luxury retailer doesn't have the addresses for about 31 percent of the owners of the 1.1 million cards possibly compromised during the breach from last July 16 through Oct. 30, the company divulged in a letter to the state Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation this week.

Of the approximately 2,400 payment cards that already have been used for fraudulent transactions, 47 of them belong to Massachusetts residents, Neiman's general counsel said in the Jan. 25 letter. That number also could grow, because Neiman has the addresses of just 71 percent of those card-holders.

The letter also revealed that while the malware that allowed hackers to collect, or "scrape," customer card data was installed on the company's system as early as last July, separate, related malware that enabled the scraping to occur "appears to have been clandestinely inserted earlier in 2013."
