Customers Not Told About Alleged Theft of Consumer Data http://online.wsj.com/article/SB121842142123128889.html The other retailers -- OfficeMax Inc., Barnes and Noble Inc., and Sports Authority Inc. -- wouldn't say whether they made consumer disclosures. Computer searches of their Securities and Exchange Commission filings, Web sites, press releases and news archives turned up no evidence of such disclosures. The other companies allegedly targeted by the ring charged last week were: TJX Cos., BJ's Wholesale Club Inc., shoe retailer DSW Inc., and restaurant chain Dave and Buster's Inc. They each disclosed to customers they were breached shortly after the intrusions were discovered. The disclosure issue emerged after the government charged 11 men in five countries, including the U.S., Ukraine and China, with orchestrating a high-tech operation to steal credit-card numbers from 2003 to 2008. inaction is also an action - pvn |
